Online work of hospital clowns

The purpose of this work

These online sessions are more than just clown therapy sessions; the purpose of this work runs much deeper, because we're talking about a long-term relationship. The clowns have known many of the children for several years now, and these online interactions have become a real space for support, trust and friendship. During these sessions with the young participants, the clown therapists improvise, joke, play and also talk about the things that worry the children most: school, learning and changes in their lives.

Remote support sessions help maintain a sense of stability, control and connection, despite having to relocate or undergo treatment abroad. Video calls for children enable them to continue communicating in a Ukrainian-speaking environment, feel supported and stay connected to what matters most to them.

This area of work is being carried out thanks to the support of IT-company Dysnix Charity Foundation, which ensures the continuity of online communication and thereby expands access to psychosocial support for Ukrainian children around the world.
