We were allowed to organize a special day for refugee Ukrainian children in the Netherlands. The children shared their stories, asked their questions and, above all, had fun. Wonderful to notice again how important it is for children that adults really listen to them.

“The war causes many broken souls.” In any case, the self-confidence of these children has received a huge boost.

Thanks to vfonds – National Fund for Peace, Freedom and Veteran Care, Madurodam, Evgeniy Levchenko, Municipality of The Hague, Sonja, Bea, Marjo and all others who made this day a success.

Special thanks to Liliana Happel for the fantastic interpreting, translation and improvisation.
