WAR EXPOSURE, DAILY STRESSORS, AND MENTAL HEALTH 15 YEARS ON: IMPLICATIONS OF AN ECOLOGICAL FRAMEWORK FOR ADDRESSING THE MENTAL HEALTH OF CONFLICT-AFFECTED POPULATIONS

War exposure, daily stressors, and mental health 15 years on: implications of an ecological framework for addressing the mental health of conflict-affected populations

Abstract Aims Fifteen years ago, we published an article in Social Science and Medicine seeking to resolve the contentious debate between advocates of two very different frameworks for understanding and addressing the mental health needs of conflict-affected populations.The two approaches, which we labelled trauma-focused and psychosocial, reflect
