For more on such large-scale violence of human by human, see The United Nations Refugee Agency: UNHCR (= U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees) and further information cited there. Notice the menu at the left and its bottom item ("How you can help"). And one organization that works on a more local level (and whose home page provides links to discussions on various central issues in this domain) is Survivors of Torture, International: SOTI.

See also the video on Survivors of Torture, International: SOTI.

And for more on the psychological impact of organized violence (as in politically or culturally inspired torture), see Articles, Research, and Resources in Psychology, which includes links to over 100 online resources for torture victims, refugees, and asylum seekers, as well as (especially for French readers coming to this page) AVRE: Association pour les Victimes de la Repression en Exil (Association for the Victims of Repression in Exile), with a link to Yassaman Montazami, responsable de departement formation AVRE (Yassaman Montazami, Director of Training at AVRE), and to Formation de sensibilisation à  la problématique médico-psychologique des victimes de torture en exil (Training in sensitization to the complex of medico-psychological issues concerning torture victims in exie).
