Participatory Educational Methodology; Healing of Memories; Logotherapy

Abstract

It is in such scenarios that the “Coalition for Work with Psychotrauma and Peace” employs a participatory educational methodology in order to empower traumatized people “to take control of their own lives.” This pedagogy and practice allows participants to use their experience and to work with their own issues in their own order and at their own pace. The curriculum includes a general introduction to working with people, self-care, interpersonal and group communication, psychology, and counseling, particularly as applied to the particular situations of the participants, non-violent conflict transformation, and human rights.
