Kashmir

India, Kashmir, August 2008
The population of Kashmir is traumatised by over 20 years of violence. New tensions arise all the time. They are living under the pressure of these tensions and have to deal with losing loved ones or get injured themselves. In one way or another everyone is affected by the situation in Kashmir. MSF has worked to increase awareness of psychosocial problems and in 2009 more than 5,800 people were treated on the mental health programme. MSF also provided support to six clinics in Kupwara, conducting more than 20,500 consultations.
