Olive Branch Project

The Olive Branch Project is a project carried out and completed in cooperation with Muntada Aid, AID Alliance of International Doctors, and Orphan Foundation in order to alleviate the effects of the traumatic events experienced by Syrian children and women who had to immigrate to Istanbul due to the Syria war.

Through the Olive Branch Project, we aimed to establish "intervention" programs for kids and women who are the victims of war in order to lessen risk factors and strengthen supportive variables in their life.

The primary aim of these psychosocial support programs, in which children and women receive help individually or in groups, are to regain the lost sense of basic trust, to prevent the disruptive effects that may arise from post-traumatic stress reactions, and to help people regain their pre-trauma functionality levels.
