Source: United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA). Published: 10/2019. This 45-page report presents case studies from 10 countries that detail efforts to provide integrated services for mental health and psychosocial support to women and girls, and other at-risk groups through a multi-sectoral response in emergencies. It discusses how war, human rights violations, underdevelopment, climate change, and natural disasters are driving people to leave their homes in unprecedented numbers, and how humanitarian crises produce psychological suffering and trauma, which threaten the health and well-being of affected people, and erode global efforts for peacebuilding and recovery.
