The paper “No Peace of Mind: Palestinian Mental Health Under Occupation” explores the profound impact of the Israeli occupation on the mental health of Palestinians. It highlights how ongoing violence, restrictions on movement, and economic hardships contribute to widespread psychological distress. The report emphasizes that children and young people are especially vulnerable, experiencing high levels of anxiety, depression, and trauma. These mental health challenges are compounded by limited access to mental health services and support systems. It calls for urgent international action to address these issues and provide the necessary resources to support the mental well-being of Palestinians.
