The meeting was aimed at participants of the WDN project, who, as a result of the war, had to leave their country and are now rebuilding their lives in Poland.

In working with individuals experiencing trauma, migration, anxiety, or loss, art therapy can be a safe and effective tool for rebuilding a sense of internal safety.

It was not just a workshop – it was a step towards independence, towards a new sense of self, in a new reality.
