ESCAP webinars for healthcare professionals in Ukraine 2024-2025

ESCAP held the first of a series of webinars for healthcare professionals in Ukraine. More than 370 participants joined us online – not only child and adolescent psychiatrists, but also family doctors, paediatricians, adult psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers - a very broad, mixed field of participants. The series of webinars is organized in collaboration with the Mental Health Coordination Center of the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine and UNICEF. The project is being implemented within the framework of the All-Ukrainian Mental Health Programme ‘Are You OK?’, an initiative of First Lady Olena Zelenska. Presentations are simultaenously translated into Ukrainian.
