Report on Trauma Effects on Psychology after the Khmer Rouge

The Program has undertaken an extensive analysis of the effects of trauma on survivors of the Khmer Rouge era and performed a comprehensive analysis of the public mental health system in the Kingdom of Cambodia. Our published findings were accepted as evidence in the ECCC and used to influence sentencing and reparations in Case 002/1. The book is available for the public: "Cambodia’s Hidden Scars: Trauma Mental Health in the Wake of the Khmer Rouge." Lab faculty Daryn Reicherter and Beth Van Schaack have updated the findings in a new volume, "Cambodia’s Hidden Scars: Trauma Psychology and the Extraordinary Chambers in the Courts of Cambodia."  The Program’s affiliates also consolidated the findings into an expert report for use in Case 002/2.
