Träning i akut omhändertagande i Ukraina

About this project

MCF is training participants from a Ukrainian NGO to become Instructors in first aid/trauma care. These in turn educate others. Some instructors have been taken to Sweden for further education/training, but the majority of the training takes place in Ukraine. The limited level of basic first aid training in Ukraine has led to many cases of serious injuries and deaths, which could have been avoided. The needs for training in the field are enormous, at the same time as most of the international efforts carried out within the area focuses on the education of end users, i.e. of people with direct need of education. This approach is very resource demanding and therefore MCF has focused on training instructors, so-called training of trainers within networks and organizations for volunteers. The overall aim and expected results of the efforts are that more lives can be saved, among people affected by the war in Ukraine. More specific expected life-saving efforts are achieved through increased competence in the care of war injuries in Ukrainian society, increase the number of available instructors as well enable the training of additional instructors in-house.
