Chiapas is a state mostly populated by indigenous communities who are extremely marginalized. The conditions of poverty and marginalization led to the formation of the indigenous political group, EZLN in 1994 and other autonomous, community-based organizations supported by the Zapatistas. Rather than responding to the demands of these indigenous groups the Mexican government is waging low intensity warfare through paramilitary groups. With the grant received from the Martín-Baró Fund, the Proyecto plans to continue a project to train indigenous, community-based mental health promoters in community mental health, psychosocial support and accompaniment, and detecting and addressing human rights violations. The training workshops focus on: recognizing low-intensity warfare, engaging in crisis intervention, gaining tools to facilitate mutual support groups, evaluating the mental health needs of community members, and addressing alcoholism and domestic violence.
