Selbststärkende Gemeinschaft (Continued)
The 'Selbststärkende Gemeinschaft' (SG) project was initiated 20 years ago in the Favelas of Brasil by Adalberto Barreto, anthropologist and psychiatrist. He called it 'Terapia Comunitaria'. His intention was to offer support to as many people as possible and to strengthen them in their capabilities, without cost. Meanwhile this method has been officially recognised by the brasilian Health Authorities and is now widely practised as a preventative measure for better health. Scientific studies have be carried out. "In fast allen südamerikanischen Ländern, in der Ukraine, in Tadschikistan, in Frankreich, in Deutschland und der Schweiz wird sie in verschiedenen sozialen Zusammenhängen praktiziert.
