Join us on March 7th for a groundbreaking exploration of essential social services identified in the “Innovation in Social Services in Ukraine” project, supported by IFSW Europe and financed by Baden-Wurttemberg Foundation.
This initiative, led by the Federation of NGOs in Transilvania, Romania and partners, aims to transform the social landscape in Ukraine.
AGENDA:
18.00-18.30:
Topic: Presentation of the Rehabilitation and Recovery Center for Service Army and Their Families
Presentation done by: Oksana Palylyulko
Description:Â Regrettably, Ukraine’s current system lacks the indispensable services provided by Project Victory. Despite surging demand amid the daily challenges of ongoing conflict, there is a glaring absence in addressing the unique needs of service members and their families. This absence is keenly felt by those dealing with physical injuries and psychological trauma, necessitating a holistic and tailored support system, presently lacking in the Ukrainian infrastructure.
Purpose: Comprehensive support for military personnel and their families.
Current Limitations: Financial constraints identified by our interdisciplinary team of social workers and psychologists.
Service Objectives: The services offered encompass both social and medical facets, including medical assistance, rehabilitation, group counseling, socio-economic services, employment assistance, educational support, and legal advice.
By addressing the following questions, the webinar aims to provide comprehensive insights into the innovative solutions and initiatives undertaken to enhance social assistance in Ukraine:
- What challenges are currently encountered by military service members and their families in Ukraine when seeking comprehensive support for physical and psychological rehabilitation?
- How would a service designed to bridge the gap in addressing the distinctive needs of military service members and their families be structured?
18.30-19.00:Â
Topic: Presentation of the Home Services for the Elderly

This initiative is dedicated to providing technical rehabilitation support, household management assistance and psychological support, ensuring a comprehensive and comforting experience within their residences.
