Our research
Trauma is a common part of human experience.
The centre interprets trauma as physical, psychological or cultural experiences that are extremely negative, uncontrollable, out of the ordinary and sudden or cumulative. Representing the diversity of health disciplines, we collaborate to reduce the occurrence of trauma as well as promote effective interventions aimed at reducing the harmful effects of trauma to individuals, families and society.
