Intisar Foundation
The Intisar Foundation provides psychological recovery and self-empowerment of Arab women traumatized by war.
The Intisar Foundation has developed and introduced an innovative approach to the field of Peacebuilding that uses drama therapy as a means to enable the psychological recovery and self-empowerment of Arab women traumatised by war and violence.
It utilizes drama therapy as the only psychological intervention that addresses body, emotions, and the mind (the neuroscience-based approach).
It relies on the psychological intervention of drama therapy that successfully circumvents mental health stigma by employing various activities (from dance to storytelling) which enable women to avoid self-stigmatization and allow themselves to overcome their individual traumas at their own pace, and whose creative approach prevents any potential social stigmatization hampering the women’s psychological progress.
