The Ukrainian Red Cross, in partnership with the High School of Public Governance, held an educational event to mark World Mental Health Day
Specialists from the Ukrainian Red Cross’s Mental Health and Psychosocial Support (MHPSS) programme delivered a practical training session titled “Keep the Balance” for representatives of central executive authorities whose work involves public communication and daily interaction with people.
Over the course of two intensive hours, participants:
- learned self-help and emotional stabilisation techniques;
- practised supportive communication and peer support;
- discussed strategies for preventing professional burnout;
- tried out practical exercises for use in everyday work situations.
The session focused on hands-on tools — participants gained skills and techniques to help them maintain their personal resilience and manage stress in high-pressure environments.
The Ukrainian Red Cross and the High School of Public Governance continue their joint efforts to support public servants by creating a positive environment for partnership and the implementation of meaningful initiatives.
