Healing the enduring effects of violence and trauma
For survivors of torture, sexual violence, and arbitrary incarceration, the trauma did not conclude with the political transition. Permanent physical disability, chronic ailments, and debilitating psychological distress continue to impact daily life. Rehabilitation addresses these persistent consequences through sustained, compassionate medical and psychosocial services rather than one-time monetary disbursements.
“Rehabilitation acknowledges that healing is an ongoing journey requiring institutional commitment, dignity, and specialised clinical care.”
