WELCOME TO ICMHHR

We work directly with communities that have experienced the trauma and heartbreak of war, natural disaster and human rights violations. Our mission is to develop and implement trauma recovery and leadership training curricula for health workers, community leaders and school systems in communities suffering from complex psychological trauma; to conduct rigorous efficacy research on the protocols developed; and create initiatives at the intersection of international human rights and mental health and to produce documentary films for educational and consultancy purposes in national and international forums.

ICMHHR proceeds in the spirit of the World Health Organization's recognition that "the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of health is one of the fundamental rights of every human being."
