Unfortunately, in modern Ukrainian society, one of the acute social problems is violence, which targets different people by age, status, gender, etc.

A person who has suffered from violence needs psychological help. And it is probably easier to prevent violence than to overcome it.

In order to prevent violence, the Psychological Service of Chernihiv Polytechnic National University joined the All-Ukrainian action “16 Days Against Violence”. Specialists of the service conducted a number of events for higher education seekers, aimed at raising awareness of ways to overcome and prevent manifestations of aggression and violence:

• training “Prevention of domestic violence”;
• scientific-practical seminar – training “First psychological assistance to victims of violence”;
• interactive lecture “Assertiveness: the balance between passivity and aggression.”
