“Now I can be somebody. I can think for myself…” Psychological support in cases of violence, HIV and poverty

How can girls and women who have experienced violence or live in a violent environment be sup-ported to lead autonomous lives and cope with their traumatic experiences? How can children and young people who have lost their parents to AIDS, who are living with HIV or are caring for sick parents be assisted in getting past these challenges and support them in order for them to explore their own abilities and build self-confidence? aidsfocus.ch, AIDS&Child und terre des hommes schweiz are inviting you to take part in a dialogue and sharing of ideas, models, experiences and challenges concerning psychosocial support in southern Africa.
