This summer, from June to August, our experienced trainers have worked in the village of Nemishaieve (Bucha district, Kyiv region), at the children\u2019s camp <\/span>\u201cTraining Project Caramel\u201d<\/span><\/i>. They conducted intensive psychological sessions aimed at helping children whose lives have been affected by the war.<\/span><\/p>\n

The camp became a safe and resourceful space for children who survived occupation, terrorist attacks, are waiting for their parents to return from the front, or have suffered irreparable losses. These ordinary Ukrainian children took part in a \u201cChildren and War: Teaching Recovery Techniques.\u201d therapy course<\/span>.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

The camp\u2019s atmosphere was warm and nurturing, and the program \u2014 engaging and rich. The children didn\u2019t just play, discuss problems, or draw; they followed a structured program with one main goal: to learn self-help techniques. When a camp is fun, provides emotional resources, and teaches essential life skills \u2014 that is truly priceless!<\/span><\/p>\n

The depth of this work is best reflected in the words of the participants themselves. For example, during body-oriented regulation exercises, one girl vividly described her breakthrough: <\/span>\u201cIt felt like I learned to wring fear out of myself, like water from a towel.\u201d<\/span><\/i> Her words inspired others to see their own bodies as powerful tools of resilience. And during a session on restoring the sense of control, when participants created their own \u201cinner superheroes,\u201d one boy named his father as his symbol of strength \u2014 which sparked a deep group discussion about inner power.<\/span><\/p>\n

We believe that the gained knowledge and skills will become a reliable tool for children to independently overcome challenges. This summer was not only joyful but also deeply meaningful in building psychological resilience.<\/span><\/p>\n

We sincerely thank our constant partner and good friend <\/span>\u201cTraining Project Caramel\u201d<\/span><\/i> and its director <\/span>Iryna Zavalna<\/b> for their cooperation.<\/span><\/p>\n

This project was created by the \u201cHOPE worldwide Ukraine\u201d Charity Foundation with the support of a grant from the Children\u2019s Resilience Fund: Providing Capacity Building and Funding to Ukrainian Civil Society Organisations in Ukraine. The program is implemented by<\/span> Crown Agents in Ukraine<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Integrity Action<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
