Mental health and psychosocial impacts of occupation-related violence in Palestine

Reports

Médecins du Monde France (MdM) has been working in Palestine since 1996 and has been always considered since Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) as one of its core activities. Yet most of these problems are nurtured by harmful occupation policies which clearly affect the foundations of the Palestinian society and prevail its fulfilment.

While 2017 marks anniversary of 50 years of occupation and 10 years of blockade in Gaza, it is more than time for the international community to take concrete action to have these daily violations on right to health immediately ceased.
