2015 SD056 Psychosocial Support for Sudanese Youth

Sudan suffered decades of civil war, during which millions of people were killed or displaced. The conflict destroyed the infrastructure of the country, leading to an acute lack of basic services for children and young people. This programme is designed to improve access to psychosocial support to children in Sudan. Measures to achieve this include widening access to psychosocial support to schools- training facilitators in War Child's DEALS methodology- and strengthening the identification and referral system of vulnerable children to trauma centres.
