PSYCHOLOGICAL CHALLENGES
•Natural resilience must be cultivated – there is widespread resilience if the family and wider social fabric can be kept intact
•How do we foster resilience on the individual, family and community level?
•For this to happen community mobilization and supportive social environments are needed
•Most large-scale disasters demand international cooperation
•Mental health issues are no exception to this
•In resource poor countries problems of everyday living may take priority over mental health issues
•Organisational fragmentation, problems in command, cooperation and communication are common – hence IASC guidelines
