● IPA Committee on Psychoanalytic Assistance in Crises and Emergencies - PACE
MOROCCO ● Following the devastating earthquake in the High Atlas region, many communities continue to face the psychological and social consequences of the catastrophe. ● In collaboration with the humanitarian organization High Atlas Foundation , PACE coordinates support for staff and volunteers assisting the affected population. ● A pilot program began in April 2024 with seminars on trauma and emergency interventions. Building on this experience, the IPA–PACE “Education for Workers” program provides theoretical–practical seminars aimed at strengthening the resources of professionals and volunteers working in healthcare, education, and community services so they can better support their communities.
