What a difference a decade makes: in 2015, the @iascch MHPSS RG asked ‘What is DRR?’. This year, our dedicated thematic group on #DRR & climate is sharing resources (READY training, Meera Video & preparedness assessment tool) that can transform the integration of MHPSS with #DRM.

Better late than never: initiating conversations about ‘localisation’ of MHPSS, and especially the transformation of power-dynamics in the fields, at the @iascch MHPSS Reference Group annual meeting 2024.

‘Will everyone who was a part of the 2004 Asian Tsunami response please stand up!’

Was able to share some experience from Sri Lanka, and how it connected to the IASC MHPSS Guidelines development. Was so good (and powerful) to hear reflections from other colleagues in the room.
