Background
The world watched as Liberian children as young as ten years old were exploited as armed combatants. We have built a residential facility in Little Bassa, Liberia where we want to provide former child soldiers a three-month program to help them recover from their trauma and obtain the skills necessary for social reintegration, taking care of a family and employment.
COVID-19 awareness
As mentioned briefly in the last report, HR&S (Human Rights & Science) – Action10 supported the HR&S Coaches COVID-19 awareness campaign in Little Bassa, Liberia. HR&S senior expert health advisers supported with information and funding to be able to help the initiative. This campaign was highly appreciated by the participants.
Knowledge sharing seminar
To be able to pursue initiatives in Little Bassa, it is important to make sure that local mental health care providers and coaches are well-educated in areas covering mental health. As a part of this, Mr. Giacomo DENTONI, Action10 volunteer staff, held an online knowledge sharing seminar for partners and coaches in April 2021.
