Project Description

This project aims to enhance the mental and psychosocial well-being of forcibly displaced Syrian women who have experienced enforced disappearances. This project employs an integrated approach that combines academic research, applied research, and practical interventions. It involves a transdisciplinary partnership that includes the Asfari Institute and the Research Chair on Forced Displacement at the American University of Beirut, the feminist research unit of Women Now for Development, and swisspeace. By integrating global health studies, political science, peace research, and feminist research, SUPPSAL uses a comparative approach, conducting qualitative research and implementing interventions across three case study contexts: Northern Syria, Lebanon, and Germany.
