Communication and self-care in times of crisis (how to offer help but also take care of yourself)

Friday 1 April 2022, 13.30 - 15.30
online via ZOOM
in English and Czech language
registration form: https://forms.gle/n96WvFwCxRAKAch88

The two-hour webinar will be a supportive meeting intended not only for Ukrainian, Russian, Belarusian and Czech students. The subject of the webinar will be caring for others, but also for oneself in times of crisis.

How should we take care of ourselves while helping in terrain? How to communicate with people who speak another language? Can our expectations not be met? We will touch on the topics of self-care, stabilization, mental resilience or recognition of one's own boundaries and limits. In the end, participants will be provided with useful contacts to find inspiration or seek professional help.
