Webinar: How do you manage to give higher education when everyday life is shaped by war?

How do you manage to give higher education when everyday life is shaped by war? How does this affect teaching, student motivation and student well-being when a sense of safety disappears?
Welcome to an important webinar where you will get first hand reflections from Ukraine. Yuliia Naniak, PhD and Associate Professor at Ivan Franko National University of Lviv, shares her experiences of how universities continue to function under extreme conditions.
During the webinar, you will gain insights into:
– How teaching is organized and adapted, when circumstances are constantly changing
– The actual challenges faced by teachers and students in a war context
– How to support students living with stress, anxiety, and trauma
– Strategies for maintaining educational quality despite limited resources
– How hope, meaning, and motivation can be sustained—even in the most difficult times
– The importance of actively supporting students’ mental health and well-being
This webinar is aimed to those working in higher education, pedagogy, or student support, as well as anyone interested in understanding the role of education in societal resilience.
Through personal experiences and concrete examples, Yuliia Naniak highlights how education can not only survive during war—but also serve as a powerful force for stability, hope, and a belief in the future.
Don’t miss this opportunity to gain new perspectives, practical insights, and inspiration from a reality where the importance of education has never been clearer.
