On March 04-06, 2024, a three-day “Children and War. Teaching Recovery Techniques” training program took place in Poltava. 25 participants, school psychologists, teachers, social pedagogues, shared that healing and recovery techniques are exactly the kind of psychological tool that is now very much needed in schools with many children from IDP families. In addition, due to war events in the country, local children are also often frightened, alarmed, and apathetic. Therefore, teachers and psychologists should know how to help children. Trainers who already have practical experience with the program also joined the training. They shared their experiences and details of working with children and their parents with the group.
The training was conducted by the psychologists of the “Helping Hand for Ukraine” project – Iryna Sukhova and Tetyana Oboyanska. The event was held in cooperation with the Ostrogradsky Poltava Academy of Continuing Education and with the financial support of the Canada-Ukraine Foundation.
