TRT Refresher training Online Middle-East successfully completed

On the 31st March and the 7th April 2023, one-day refresher TRT trainings were delivered online to mental health and psychosocial workers in different organisations located in Syria and Turkey working on the Turkey/Syria earthquake response.

A total of 35 participants took part in the trainings, split into two different training days.  All participants have experience working with children in war zones and are currently full-time employees or volunteers in organisations located in Turkey, Syria and Iraq mostly responding to the Syria/Turkey earthquake response.

Participants plan to use the TRT program as part of their main MPSS response to the Syria/Turkey earthquake in the coming months.  CAW will offer supervision sessions during and after implementation cycles in the coming months.
