Psychological support for families with children: the experience of Zaporizhzhia

Since the beginning of autumn, our mobile teams of psychologists and facilitators have been visiting communities where people live under constant stress caused by the war and often have no access to professional support. This became possible thanks to the project implemented by the NGO “Responsible Citizens” in partnership with JERU – Joint Emergency Response in Ukraine, a joint initiative of Welthungerhilfe and Concern Worldwide — with financial support from the German Federal Foreign Office.

The project is implemented by the "Responsible Citizens" NGO in partnership with Mercy Corps and with the financial support of the Government of the United Kingdom.

The NGO “Responsible Citizens” team successfully implemented this project across four regions in Eastern Ukraine

On 24 June, a panel discussion entitled “From Aid Recipients to Change-Makers: Youth at the Centre of Ukraine’s Recovery” will take place in Gdańsk as part of the Ukraine Recovery Conference 2026. We invite representatives of government authorities, civil society, international organisations, and donor organisations to join the discussion on the role of youth in the recovery of communities and the country.

The educational program that helped Yana was made possible by the NGO Responsible Citizens, which for over a year and a half has been implementing short but practical training courses across communities in Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Kharkiv, and Zaporizhzhia regions — giving displaced people a fresh start and a new professional path.

For the NGO Responsible Citizens, accessibility is not just a slogan — it’s a guiding principle we bring to life every day through our work with children, families, and communities.
