The UK Trauma Council (UKTC) has created this short animation for young people to illustrate the ways traumatic experiences during war and conflict might impact them. Storytelling helps convey and normalise common physical and emotional responses. The animation also highlights how dealing with the past can help young people move forward and the key role that social connection plays in this journey.

The video is also available in:
Arabic:    • لصدمات النفسية من الحروب والصراعات في...  
Ukrainian:    • Травма війни та конфлікту у дітей | U...
