Peshawar, Pakistan has been a site of intense violence and terror resulting from ongoing fighting between the Taliban and government military forces. An AWARE Girls’ survey “revealed that over 50% of respondents want to leave Peshawar…, 44% are worried about their children and an astonishing 79% don’t feel able to visit the market for shopping.” Over the past two years the MartínBaró Fund has supported AWARE Girls’ development of a manual on trauma and torture treatment and the training of 10 counselors who use creative expression to promote recovery and community dialogue among women and child survivors including internally displaced women. This year’s renewal grant will support training an additional 15 women and outreach to 50 women and 25 children of Peshawar District.
