Description
Solvig Ekblad, Oksana Gramatik, and Yuliia Suprun present a pilot study, published in 2024, on trauma support for Ukrainian refugees in Sweden. Many fled the invasion that began in 2022 and live under a European mass refuge rule. An in-person group program had helped health knowledge, but it had not been tried online. The team tested a brief online version over six months.
Six sets of five group sessions ran online, with coaches and interpreters taking part. Baseline forms came from 136 people, most of them women. Stress scores fell clearly after the sessions, and felt health rose a great deal. Older people stayed more at risk, with higher stress. Four in ten needed one-to-one support as well. The pilot shows the format can work.
