On June 13, 2024, 28 new trainers of the “Children and War. Teaching Recovery Techniques” program in Poltava have been certified. Charity Foundation “HOPE worldwide Ukraine” in cooperation with the M. V. Ostrohradskyi Poltava Academy of Continuing Education organized and conducted a training project for the educators of Poltava region.
“I’m glad that two powerful communities have met! – associate professor of the Academy, PhD in psychology, psychologist Ludmila Zhdanyuk, shared her impressions at the end of the project. – We have planned, organized, conducted and completed the first joint project that lasted three months.
Yesterday I listened to the final reflections of the participants and was amazed that despite the complexity of the topic (working with children who witness war), complicated own experiences, terrible life stories of children, the need to master new work tools, air alarms, buses that broke down, physical injuries and many, many other obstacles, the participants found a place for self-expression and creativity. They not only supported, motivated, empathized, cared, but also gave the joy of childhood!”
Iryna Sukhova, project manager and lead psychologist of the “Helping Hand for Ukraine” project, psychologist Oleksiy Sukhov, and group coordinator Khrystyna Kravchenko awarded the participants with certificates. We would like to thank our new partner, the M.V. Ostrohradskyi Poltava Academy of Continuing Education, for fruitful cooperation! We are thankful to the Canada-Ukraine Foundation for financial support!
