Young people in conflict-affected communities—and especially those living in Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps—face daily emotional stress caused by violence, loss, poverty, and instability.
These experiences shape their identity, limit opportunities, and create long-term mental health challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, and hopelessness.
For young women, the psychological burden is even heavier due to gender-based violence, caregiving responsibilities, and lack of support systems.
Amid overcrowding, uncertainty, and disrupted schooling, mental well-being becomes a crucial part of peacebuilding and community development.
Workshops that teach youth and women about trauma, stress, emotional regulation, and practical coping skills.
Safe and confidential spaces—especially for young women—to share experiences and receive guided emotional support.
Training for youth leaders, volunteers, and educators to identify trauma and support healing within their communities.
Awareness sessions, recreational therapy, and one-on-one emotional support for displaced children and young adults.
