Invitation to online training “Building dialogue with clients”

Human Rights Vector NGO invites you to participate in the online training «Building a dialogue with clients» for specialists who provide legal assistance to victims of the Russian Federation's war against Ukraine. The event will take place within the framework of the «Helping those who help» Program.
 
Providing legal aid to war victims requires not only high-quality legal knowledge, but also psychological training, because it can be a very emotionally-difficult job, which is also exacerbated by the constant stressful working conditions during wartime. You will have the opportunity to exchange experience with colleagues, and to talk with experts about how to maintain balance in work, apply a client-oriented approach, and take care of your own boundaries and psychological state.
 
The online training will take place on the 31st of July and the 1st of August, 2023, from 10:00 to 13:00.
