Training in strategic future literacy

The cross-sectoral training format aimed to address the most pressing challenges of our time, in all dimensions — physical, legal, informational, social and emotional. It has brought together the expertise of international professionals and Ukraine’s strategic needs in the field of reintegrating temporarily occupied territories.

The goal of the training was to encourage deep rethinking and adaptation of international experience in the Ukrainian context, shaping a resilient vision for the reintegration of liberated territories — including Crimea — based on strategies of civic resilience, crisis foresight and cross-sectoral, interdisciplinary collaboration.

The training is grounded in the principle of civic resilience and is designed to help participants:

- prepare for the complex processes of stabilisation and recovery following occupation;

- develop future-planning skills in times of crisis;

- strengthen interagency coordination, communication and advocacy in the areas of security, social cohesion and identity;

- understand the long-term challenges that lie ahead for the state and communities in the post-war period.

Around 30 people from the public sector, security agencies, emergency services, expert communities, social services, the media and psychological support services joined the training.

The training has provided a platform for participants to jointly develop approaches to the recovery and reintegration of Ukraine’s liberated territories. Over the next few days, participants have shared experiences in how to conduct analyses and carry out practical work to develop resilient solutions for the future.

This project was implemented in cooperation with Resilient Ukraine and the School of Mediapatriots, in partnership with the Crimea Daily media initiative, and with support from the Mission of the President of Ukraine in the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, the Council on the Cognitive Decolonisation of Crimea, and the Embassy of Estonia in Ukraine.
