Event Details

The IACAET Global Care for Caregivers through the Arts webinar intends to provide a collegial space of support for arts-based professionals and organizations working in healthcare, mental health, education and development around Russia’s war against Ukraine.  While there is a wealth of knowledge and practices to address crisis and trauma, IACAET acknowledges that we live in historical times where there is no template for managing the long term impact and severity of this war and its consequences upon families, children, individuals, communities and nations. We wish therefore to present a forum of solidarity, care and support for all our colleagues working on the ground both in Ukraine and outside of its’ boundaries. This webinar will present some arts-based approaches that individuals, groups and organizations have developed that can help caregivers and persons seeking care to find ways of coping and being in relationship to each other. Additionally, live music performances will contribute to the richness of the work being described. Webinar participants will learn about approaches, concepts and practices that can be applied towards: finding and being in connection; developing a practice for grounding; and a way towards building stability and resilience. It is with intention participants will be able to utilize some of the self-care practices for their own professional practice or personal growth.
