We would like to share with you important information from our partner The Geneva Learning Foundation about supporting Ukrainian children through a partnership with the First Psychological Aid.
What is Psychological First Aid (PFA)?
PFC is a practical, evidence-based approach to supporting children in crisis. Unlike clinical interventions, PFC creates safe spaces, addresses immediate needs, provides emotional support without pressure to talk, and connects children to appropriate resources. Our approach has proven to be particularly effective for Ukrainian children affected by the current crisis.
What makes the approach valuable:
- Mutual learning methodology, where experts share real solutions, not just theoretical knowledge
- Bilingual implementation (Ukrainian and English) that connects practitioners across borders
- Evidence-based conclusions derived from documented field experiences
- Flexible participation options designed for busy practitioners
