Diversophy® Training – a game focused on Ukrainian culture.

We invite volunteers to take part in an online meeting during which we will learn Ukrainian customs, culture and everyday habits in a practical way – through a specially prepared game. The aim of the game is to encourage mutual knowledge and discussion, better understanding, and enrichment with what is new.

Especially for us, the meeting will be conducted by Marta Doroszuk – SIETAR Polska member, psychologist, psychosocial skills trainer, PhD student at the Institute of Psychology of the Jagiellonian University.
Date of training: June 30 (Thursday) at 5 p.m. (17:00) (the meeting will last about 1.5 hours)
Place: online, ZOOM platform

The training will be conducted in English, therefore the knowledge of this language is required. The training is free of charge.

(Before the meeting, the participants will receive an e-mail with a request to fill in a short questionnaire, which is part of the Trainer’s research.)

If you have any questions, we are at your disposal!
