These tip sheets are for individuals working with refugees from Syria and the surrounding Middle East region. They were developed by Clinic Psychology’s Public Mental Health Initiative to translate best available knowledge to concrete and useful communication and action strategies. The tip sheets include accessible, applicable, succinct, and culturally relevant advice from experts in cross cultural and international psychology and are focused on Syria and the Middle East. The tips were developed from contributions from psychologists and public health workers around the world. The goal is to promote positive cross cultural experiences and assist in the transition of, and work with refugees from this region. These tips draw on culturally appropriate psychological knowledge and available best practices.
