What would you like to say to chldren and young people who are still being affected by the war in Ukraine and other countries
"Hold on and live. All wars end at some point, but lost time cannot be regained" - Male, Poland 

"No matter how hard it is, you have to live on, build your future, develop and learn!" - Female, Latvania

"First, do not despair. And to remain children because their childhood was taken away from them, just like mine"- Male, Czech Republic

"You can't fold your hands, you have to live, learn, move forward and hope for the best" - Female, Bulgaria

"Seek help, believe in yourself, stand up for your rights. Don't be afraid to be vulnerable, but don't let yourself be taken advantage of." -  Female, Poland

"I would tell them that they are not alone, that many children and young people are not in an easy situation at the moment, but there are prospects. There is an opportunity to develop, study, learn languages, integrate, travel and work abroad in the countries where they are. These experiences and skills can then help Ukraine become an even stronger, prosperous and progressive country when the war is over. I would like to wish all these people success, strength, effort, patience and inspiration. You have to go forward under any circumstances. So that they do not choose: to return to Ukraine or to stay behind the corridor forever, they will still forever remain Ukrainians, only they must not forget their roots and glorify their Motherland" - Female, Germany

"Trying to adapt in another country and waiting for a quick return home." Female, Romania

"Don’t loose hope, you are the future of your country. You are strong, and this will make you even stronger. Be close with your family, suport each other and everything will be okay. Love is the only answer! "-
