Ukrainian Crisis Resource Centre

Sunflowers

Child Helpline International is committed to supporting the world’s children. During these difficult times, children have called upon our member child helplines to voice their concern, fear and empathy for all those with connections to Ukraine. As they try to grasp the adult situation unfolding around them, they are asking how the war will affect them, what they can do, what is to come in the future.

We hope that the information in this resource hub is relevant for child helplines and can help to calm the questions your counsellors are receiving from callers. Use the “Translate” dropdown at the top of the page to read in your preferred language.
