Another inspiring summer gathering took place in Ukraine!

From 6–9 July, the Ukrainian Institute of Positive Psychotherapy (UIPP) held its annual Summer School for Trainers and Project Leaders in Cherkasy - the city where the history of in Ukraine began.

Held in a hybrid format, the Summer School brought together 20 trainers and candidate trainers and 9 regional project leaders representing 16 cities across Ukraine. Together, they exchanged experience, strengthened their professional competencies, and planned the future development of the Institute.

The programme combined strategic planning, trainer SV, SD groups, practical workshops, and opportunities for meaningful connection and restoration. A special focus was placed on maintaining the high educational standards of WAPP/UIPP and supporting the professional and personal growth of trainers and project leaders, especially in the challenging context of war.

Throughout the programme, the principles of the Balance Model of PPT were brought to life by creating space for learning, collaboration, self-care, creativity, and shared vision.

We congratulate our Ukrainian colleagues on another successful Summer School and wish them an inspiring new academic year ahead!

We are pleased to share another summer highlight from our community!

The 10th Anniversary Summer Intensive Camp, organized by the South Ukrainian Institute of Psychology, Psychotherapy and Management (Південноукраїнський інститут психології,психотерапії,управління ), brought together around 60 Ukrainian colleagues from different parts of the world in Shabla, Bulgaria.

Participants took part in self-experience and supervision modules led by trainers from Ukraine, Bulgaria, and Romania, including Gabriela Hum, Todor Todorov, Boryana Chalakova, Olga Lytvynenko, Gergana Bencheva, Elena Drazheva, Liudmyla Korolova, Paraskovia Budurova, and Olena Kuzmenko.

Alongside the educational program, participants enjoyed a rich community experience with evening activities, workshops, movie nights, theatrical performances, and many opportunities to connect, reflect, and simply spend time together.

In these challenging times, it was especially meaningful that Ukrainian colleagues could come together in a safe environment to continue their education in Positive Psychotherapy (PPT after Peseschkian, since 1977). The camp also created an opportunity for Ukrainian professionals currently living abroad to reunite with colleagues from Ukraine and strengthen the bonds of their professional community.

We warmly congratulate the SUIPPM on the successful 10th anniversary of this wonderful tradition and thank them for sharing these memorable moments with the international WAPP community.
