Ukraine is currently facing a brutal invasion by Russia. This crisis is and will be a psychological challenge for everyone, but especially for those whose family and friends are in the war zone or have previously faced a similar crisis, had to flee or could not see their family or friends for a long time.  We are thinking in particular of the students from Ukraine, but also of other students who feel directly or indirectly involved in the conflict, such as students from Russia or surrounding Eastern European countries. But students from other war zones, such as Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan, can also have a hard time.

When facing the fear, uncertainty about the future, anxiety and worrying about the family and friends being safe and having enough to eat, writing a thesis or studying for an exam is certainly not a priority

If you recognize yourself in this, you can seek support from the Coaching platform. If you feel overwhelmed and find it difficult to continue with your daily responsibilities or are confronted with despair and intense emotions, a coach from the Coaching platform may be able to help you. These are (former) psychology students, who have learned how to listen to stories, support in the face of adversity and offer help in finding what can be done.
