War has stolen their childhood. Help the children in Kharkiv continue learning safely
How many times did a teacher ask you to open a window and air out the classroom during a lesson? What many of us take for granted is something countless children in Ukraine have never experienced. Instead, they learn online or in underground schools designed to protect them from attacks. Through the Caritas for Ukraine fundraising campaign, we will help equip two such schools and Ukraine’s very first newly built underground kindergarten. In doing so, we will support a network of ten underground educational centres that already enable children in Kharkiv to continue learning even during air raid sirens. What does education without daylight look like, and how has war reshaped the childhood of an entire generation? In this interview, the headteacher of one of these schools shares her experience.
