Community interventions in conflict and post-conflict societies
Research project: A review of the Latin American experiences
A comparative study of psycho-social interventions in
communities South and Central America, Middle East and Denmark
Contact: Henrik Rønsbo
The project's general goals follow RCT's Strategic Plan
(2005-2015). Our point of departure is that there is a lack of
systematized knowledge about how communities endure hardship and
fight against TOV. RCT sees its role as gathering and reviewing
bibliographical data and generate knowledge, to the extent the
bibliographical material enables it, about rehabilitation of
victims of TOV and prevention of TOV in different regions of the
world.
It is an RCT priority to broadening the understandings of
rehabilitation and prevention in relation to TOV, hereunder to
reflect on the effective organization of community mobilization in
different regions of the world.1 The current report represents a
step in this direction. It is a systematic review of the published
as well as the grey literature that has been written on community
oriented interventions in Latin America in the period from 1996 to
2009.
