Research project

Assessing the effectiveness of a trauma-informed approach to asylum processes. Lessons for policy and practice

Project overview

This secondment project will involve collaborative work, based on knowledge exchange and skills development, with Home Office staff (two teams: one working on Mental Health, another on Customer Voice (lived experience) inputs) to harness social science research and skills to inform the work of Home Office on TIP (trauma-informed practice) with respect to asylum processes. In brief, the focus will be on how to consider TIP principles within the whole asylum/immigration system, not just in relation to asylum-seekers.
