Well-U: Promoting the mental health and psycho-social well-being of Ukrainian refugee children and their caregivers

The project will adapt, contextualise and implement the ReachNow tool as well as the TeamUp, the Movement, Games, Sports and Creativity (MGSC) and the Problem Management Plus (PM+) interventions to support refugee children and their caregivers, as particularly vulnerable populations, in Italy, Greece, Hungary and Romania. This will provide the basis to collect and disseminate best practices, knowledge and training materials through an online Community of Practice aiming to connect and support practitioners from all over Europe that deal with migrants and refugees, especially those displaced because of the Ukrainian conflict. The project aims to conduct 18 trainings and train at least 270 lay professionals, including peer refugees to ensure sustainability, reach ±780 beneficiaries, and animate a CoP to support everyone who is promoting the mental health and psychosocial wellbeing of migrant and refugee populations.
