All in person. | The Formula for Mental Resilience: How the “Lessons in Care” Initiative Reached 30,000 Children in 24 Regions of Ukraine During the War Topics for discussion: – Fostering a culture of mental health, empathy, and inclusive thinking among children; – Presentation of the results of the “Lessons of Care” initiative for the academic year; – Presentation of the “Care Box” Why is this important? Today, Ukrainian educators are working under extremely challenging conditions: alongside the educational process, they must support children who are experiencing loss, forced relocation, separation from loved ones, and air raid alerts. Even adults’ conversations about the war cause stress in children. This is an enormous emotional burden that requires special tools and methodological support. To help educators talk to children about complex topics in simple language, as well as to support teachers in their daily work, the NGO “Academy of Care,” in partnership with Daria Gerasymchuk, the President’s Advisor on Children’s Rights and Child Rehabilitation, has launched the educational initiative “Lessons in Care.” ❗️The event will take place without simultaneous interpretation into English. |
