Context
According to the United Nations, as of January 16, 2023, 7,031 civilians have died in the war in Ukraine, including 433 children. This number is constantly growing due to the daily rocket and artillery attacks on civilian targets by Russian troops. A large percentage of people die from untimely and inadequate first aid. According to research, even relatively simple actions, such as stopping blood, can save up to 54% of victims. Unfortunately, in Ukraine, a small percentage of teachers have first aid skills, although they are required by law to do so. We work specifically with teachers because they spend a lot of time with children during the day.
