The author draws from her experience in Sierra Leone to highlight the parallels between comprehensive intervention in war-torn countries and occupational science. Focusing on ten basic principles underlying efficient cross-cultural aid, she discusses the potential of occupation as a pivotal concept for rehabilitation in post-conflict areas, and suggests the development of an occupational model that would go beyond political, economical and cultural differences. Key words: Community-based rehabilitationCivil societyWar zoneWomen's rights
