Typical hazards & measures

  • Facilitator burnoutEnsure facilitators have access to debriefing sessions, peer support, and adequate rest between group meetings. Rotate facilitators when possible to prevent burnout.
  • Participant isolationCreate small, structured group activities that encourage interaction and inclusion. Facilitators should ensure no participant feels excluded or isolated during the sessions.
  • Inappropriate locationChoose a private, neutral, and safe environment for the sessions. The space should be quiet, free of interruptions, and conducive to both group discussions and one-on-one conversations.

  • Inadequate mental health referralsEstablish relationships with local mental health professionals and services. Create a referral system that is timely and efficient, ensuring participants in need of more intensive support can access appropriate care without delay.
