Wellbeing and Resilience Videos for Humanitarians

As humanitarians, helping others is both rewarding and challenging as it takes a toll on our wellbeing and mental health. Whether you are providing humanitarian response to current events in Israel and Gaza, the protracted crises in Syria, civil war in Yemen, earthquake in Nepal, or flooding in Dominican Republic (just to name a few), a focus on your wellbeing and mental health is just as important as those you help.

Partnering with The KonTerra Group, an expert in wellbeing and resilience, DisasterReady created videos in English, Hebrew, Arabic, French, Spanish, Ukrainian, Polish, and Russian on the topics below. They are available on the DisasterReady YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s99vaur8sZU&list=PLes7IOLEry6Qdyi9iG2dksg_bAsaFR208) making them easily available for you and those you are helping.
