In Search of Healers
COPA in partnership with PACT Inc. and PACT Kenya is sharing through its publication ‘In Search of Healers’ the results of the study ‘On Trauma Healing and Breaking Cycles of Violence’ which began in 2008. The scope of the study included comprehending the apparent cycles of violence in Kenya, conceptualizing the nature of collective trauma, and outlining strategies and actions for healing, peacebuilding and conflict transformation. For a very long time, many agencies have struggled to link the healing of collective trauma to their peacebuilding and development work. This report is aiming to provide a modest response to this critical question in our theory and practice.
