Trauma-informed Peacebuilding

Getting to know Trauma, through deeply exploring and understanding what trauma is and becoming aware of how trauma affects each of us.

Narratives and Cycles of Trauma, through understanding the power of individual and collective narratives and our chosen relationship to narratives and cycles of trauma.

Being Trauma Sensitive,Trauma Informed, and Trauma Specific, through understanding the core principles of trauma informed practices: safety, trustworthiness and transparency, peer support, collaboration and mutuality, empowerment, voice and choice, as well as cultural, historical and gender issues.

Do No Harm & Understanding Dignity, through understanding how we can act in a way that is responsible, respectful, and ethical.

Resilience and Self-Care, to bring those practices into our interactions with individuals and groups in conflict or post-conflict environments.

The course is based on essential ethics: do no harm; uphold dignity; recognize our common humanity; and respect diversity and difference.

Participants will:

- Know about individual, collective and trans-generational trauma, and how it impacts the societies we live and work in.
- Understand the key terms of a trauma-informed approach and recognize patterns of common behaviour to traumatic events through case studies.
- Generate ideas, develop trauma-informed project plans, and receive practical feedback on how to integrate a trauma-informed approach in conflict analysis and project planning.
- Become aware of our personal and professional boundaries when dealing with trauma.

The course will support peace workers in international or domestic peace projects, as well as people working in active conflict zones, to more deeply explore and understand individual, communal, and historical harms - such as ethnic violence, racism, gender-based violence, and colonialism - at the root of social division.

By cultivating our sensitivity to harm and incorporating trauma-healing approaches in our relationships and work, we are better equipped to transform interpersonal and intergroup relationships.
