Book launch with the authors Herrad Meese, Cornelia von Schelling, Waltraud Volger and Anni Kammerlander, founder of Refugio Munich
Six refugees have told us their stories, why there was no alternative to fleeing their country and the deep psychological damage this has caused. Refugio Munich is one of the most important counseling and treatment centers for refugees.
More about the book:
We encounter people who have had to flee their homeland in a variety of contexts. We hardly ever suspect what bitter and violent experiences they have had in their home country and during their flight.
Six refugees have allowed Cornelia von Schelling and Waltraud Volger a glimpse behind their seemingly normal world. In numerous meetings, they confided their painful stories - why there was no alternative to fleeing their country and the deep psychological damage this has caused.
The shadows of the past make it difficult for refugees to lead a reasonably safe, normal life. Refugio Munich, the advice and treatment center for people who have experienced flight, enables them to find a way to get there: with the help of professional psychosocial, therapeutic and educational work as well as the systematic inclusion of the refugees' cultural roots. Seven texts show these services offered by Refugio Munich in theory and practice.
