Technical Working Group - Psycho-Social Support (MHPSS)

The Slovakia MHPSS Working Group.

Tenenet oz is an active member of a technical working group focused on supporting the provision of psychosocial support to people fleeing Ukraine under the expert guidance of the World Health Organization.

  1. The task of the working group is to provide a technical platform for a better coordinated and targeted inter-agency emergency response to the needs of mental health and psycho-social support (MHPSS) affected in Slovakia.
  2. Strengthen the safe and ethical delivery of services in line with Inter-Agency Standing Committee (IASC) standards, analysis and transparent sharing of data and information on MHPSS needs, priorities and activities in Slovakia, including needs assessment
  3. Promote and support quality MHPSS interventions through joint capacity building activities to ensure quality standards
  4. Promote government involvement and leadership and support the representation of various MHPSS partners and stakeholders in the working group, including government partners, UN agencies and I / NGOs

More information about the activities of the working group as well as the involvement of our organization can be found in the attached documents. One-pager is a clear interactive document of involved subjects and contacts on individual actors. It contains a brief description of the implemented activities and links to resources. As part of the international coordination of assistance and improving the provision of our services, we also cooperate with working groups in the surrounding countries and together we share information and procedures in the field of psycho-social support. As one of the outputs, it is possible to use a one-pager working group from Poland aimed at sensitizing communication with people and thus prevent pathologizing and secondary trauma to people coming from Ukraine.

Endangered identification tools

In preparation for staff working with refugees as well as working with at-risk populations, we have prepared materials provided by UNHCR as well as UNICEF for the needs of our organization. These tools and procedures are implemented in methodologies and procedures within the SOCIO platform . During crisis intervention, as well as follow-up work, it is necessary to focus on the identification of children at risk and at risk. Following the identification, it is necessary to choose the appropriate procedure and prioritize the identified risk groups based on the threat and the need to provide assistance. Various tools and methods can be used to work with potentially risky clients to identify and determine the procedure. Several possible procedures and processes for identification, prioritization and best practices can be downloaded in the annex.
