In Ukraine, a new educational initiative project called "Close Ones" was presented, aimed at families and partners of military personnel and veterans. According to information posted on the project's Instagram page, the main goal of the initiative is to provide new knowledge, ideas and a place where participants can learn something new for themselves.
Representatives of "Blyzky" express their intention to form a community in which participants will have the opportunity to get a new profession, learn new skills and find their way in management, business and creative fields.
The project plans to announce in the near future programs aimed at career growth and recreation in the community for relatives of military personnel and veterans. Military partners will also be able to find a community where people understand and share their experiences. Mothers of children of military servicemen will have the opportunity to find classes for their children and devote time to their own self-education.
The representatives of the project promise to provide knowledge and help, and if necessary, are ready to solve any difficulties. The founder of the Bazilik school of communication, Maryna Baturinets, who initiated the idea, notes that the concept was born during the "Communications" course for close soldiers and veterans at the Veteran hub. Together with other co-organizers, they joined forces and launched the "Close" initiative.
Currently, the project already has a mini-team, the first calendar of events for January has been developed, which includes classes on writing texts, learning English, developing business plans, as well as launching a new stream of the "Communications" course, reports Marina Baturinets.
