Following the end of the nearly 30-year long civil war, Sri Lanka had just begun to address the psychosocial impact from the trauma of war until the Easter Sunday attacks of April 2019 and the Covid-19 breakout in March 2020. These events only compounded the nation’s psychosocial concerns.
Ten years ago, The Asia Foundation launched the pioneering Victims of Trauma Treatment Program (VTTP) in Sri Lanka’s Northern and Eastern Provinces to provide psychosocial support to communities devastated by the trauma of the civil war. The impact of the war disrupted traditional support networks such as family, community, and religion, which people previously relied upon during times of distress.
