Feedback from our partners: 

“We were reminded that poverty, as well as other forms of deprivation and abuse, should be regarded as a source of trauma and handled accordingly.”

“Most importantly for me, it reinforced the ways in which trauma affects cognition and behavior, and reminded me that it is critical to take the full context into account when planning activities for groups and children with trauma backgrounds.”

“As a PAIR Mentor, we cannot treat trauma. Rather, we can identify the signs and elevate the conversation to more qualified personnel.”

“The modules are focusing on the relationship between learning and mental health, which is very important to understand for teachers and educators.”  -Lecturer ITU
