On August 22-26, 2022 two “Children and War. Teaching Recovery Techniques” online trainings were held within the frames of the “Helping Hand for Ukraine” Project. 80 new specialists have been trained. Almost all the participants have pedagogical or psychological education, as well as experience in working with children. They are teachers, educators, psychologists, social workers and volunteers from Kyiv, Lviv, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia, Dnipro, Odessa, Kherson, Vinnytsia, Zhytomyr, Kropyvnytskyi, Kryvyi Rih, Rohatyn, Myropillya, Brovary and other cities and villages of Ukraine. Also there were some participants who temporary live abroad – in Germany, Italy, Spain, Czech Republic, and Israel.
The trainings were conducted by the Project trainers and psychologists – Iryna Sukhova and Tetyana Oboyanska. Traditionally, the Project’s team has received a lot of grateful feedback. They hope that in the nearest future the new trainers will start using the acquired knowledge and skills to help children and their parents affected by the war against Ukraine to heal the war trauma.
