Ukraine’s children find strength, shelter in subway schools

For children affected by the war in Ukraine, school is critical – providing them with a safe space, and a semblance of normality in the most difficult of times. Education can also be a lifeline – offering access to information on the risks of deadly explosive ordnance and connecting them and their parents to essential health and psychosocial services. Together with partners, UNICEF is working to reach as many children as possible with safe learning opportunities. In dozens of Kharkiv metro stations, where children have been forced to shelter for safety, UNICEF-supported volunteers have set up spaces where teachers, psychologists and sports instructors play and engage children on a regular basis. Support for the metro schools initiative is provided from the project "Spilno", which is implemented by Kharkiv Professional Development Foundation together with UNICEF. The project aims to help children, adolescents and their families who are living in shelters or have been displaced to safer places. “Ensuring access to education can be the difference between a sense of hope or despair for millions of children,” said Murat Sahin, UNICEF Representative to Ukraine. “This is crucial for their future and that of all Ukraine.” Join UNICEF Ukraine community in social medias via links!
