Practical guide on “trauma-sensitive and empowering interaction with refugees” published by BAfF eV

"Many professionals and volunteers have questions and uncertainties regarding how to deal with traumatized refugees. How do I recognize trauma symptoms? Is this even part of my job and does it correspond to my expertise? Is the trauma acceptable to discuss? Is there a risk of retraumatization? These questions and more are addressed in the practical guide "Trauma-Sensitive and Empowering Interactions with Refugees." It includes information and suggestions for action on trauma and displacement, structural conditions of psychotherapy with refugees, dealing with trauma symptoms and stabilization in stressful situations, self-reflection regarding one's own position and work, procedures for violent incidents, crises, and suicidality, as well as self-care."
