Harvard Program at Massachusetts General Hospital Presents a Series of Expert Lectures

Harvard Program at Massachusetts General Hospital Presents a Series of Expert Lectures

The Harvard Program at Massachusetts General Hospital is presenting a series of expert lectures to assist Ukrainian healthcare professionals, especially primary care physicians, doctors, nurses, psychologists, and educators.

The video lectures are concise, clear, presented in both English and Ukrainian, and are available online for your convenience.

The lectures are designed to support the mental health and well-being of the population affected by violence, with a focus on three levels:

  • Living in conditions of ongoing war violence and witnessing war crimes.
  • Experiencing displacement within Ukraine.
  • Being a refugee in another country.

The lectures are free to access. We hope that the information presented in these videos will help you in your quest for new knowledge that you can apply.
