The Haiti Lab at Duke recently hosted an interdisciplinary workshop entitled "Discourses of Trauma in Haiti" that brought together specialists from various fields, such as psychiatry, anthropology and global health, to generate conversations that elucidate the issue of post-traumatic stress disorder in light of the earthquake that took place in 2010 and its aftermath. This event focused on four specific themes: ethnopsychiatry in Haiti; "idioms of distress"; mental health programs; measures for PTSD diagnosis.
