Brief Biography: 

Network for Africa works with communities torn apart by war and genocide. We help the forgotten survivors of African conflicts left behind by the world after the fighting stops and the humanitarian aid moves on.  We train survivors in specialised trauma counselling so they can help each other tackle the long-term psychological consequences that often block recovery. We also help rebuild lives with access to education, health and the means to support themselves.

We are currently working in Rwanda, northern Uganda and Sierra Leone.
