The pilot of our new project has started: Recovery and training through active tourism

Veterans camp in Sweden

We at Help Ukraine Gothenburg have launched a pilot recovery and training program for Ukrainian war veterans through active tourism and psychological assistance.

This is not just a trip - it is an opportunity for our defenders to return to an active life, restore physical and psychological balance, find support, and prove to themselves that life goes on even after serious injuries and amputations.  

Project goal

The program supports war veterans and their family members. We help them adapt to new realities through movement, teamwork and interaction with nature. We work in close cooperation with military psychologists who accompany participants at all stages - this helps overcome adaptation difficulties and is important for both the veteran and the entire family.

Continuation of our mission

We started by supporting children from vulnerable categories - we organized recovery and training programs for children of military personnel and those who suffered from war. Today we continue this work, focusing on veterans — those who gave the most for Ukraine and now need support on the path to a new life.

We are convinced that sustainable development of Ukrainian society is impossible without comprehensive, humane and long-term support for those who defended our freedom.

Why is this important?

Physical recovery  

Activity helps fight the consequences of injuries, improves overall well-being, and helps restore self-confidence.

Psychological support

Communication with peers, support from professional psychologists, and joint overcoming of challenges create a resource environment for internal changes.

Social adaptation  

Involvement in active life outside the family circle through interaction with nature, joint activities, and new experiences.

We are only at the beginning of this important path. Ahead are new stages of the program, expansion of the format and involvement of more participants. We believe that such initiatives create not only healthy communities, but also a strong, resilient country.
