  • "Women who work earn 25–30 percent less than their male colleagues for the same job." Since 2001, Estonia has alternated between supporting and not supporting Armenia, a country with a population of 2.9 million. Over nearly a quarter of a century, Armenia has danced its own unique dance, with steps sometimes moving closer to Europe and then drifting away again. This has also influenced Armenia's status as a target country for Estonia's development cooperation, writes Iti Aavik, Mondo's Armenia Project Manager. 👉 Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/dPvnT_z4 Estonian Centre for International Development (ESTDEV) #FromThePeopleofEstonia

  • Mondo provides mental health diagnostics as well as psychological and psychiatric counseling for Ukrainians in Ukraine and Estonia. 🇺🇦🤝🇪🇪 In November, we held a two-day seminar in Ukraine with mental health specialists and partners who help deliver online mental health support to the people of Ukraine. During the seminar, we reflected on the past year and discussed plans for the future. Here are some key takeaways from the meeting: 🔹 The growing number of consultations highlights the necessity of the service. In recent months, the demand for counseling has risen sharply in both Estonia and Ukraine. 🔹 Specialists are highly dedicated and strongly believe in the importance of this online service. 🔹 The war has impacted everyone and significantly deepened mental health challenges. People are now more aware and willing to seek help. Compared to pre-war times, when seeking support was less common, the stigma around this topic has noticeably decreased. 📌 Share information about free mental health support for Ukrainians in Estonia: https://documental.ee/uk/ #standwithukraine DocuMental Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Estonia U.S. Embassy Tallinn, Estonia

    In every war, the education system needs extra support to guarantee children access to quality education. One way to achieve this is by enhancing the digital skills of teachers and education workers. 💻🖥️ 🎒🏫 Teachers in Ukraine are in a difficult situation. Based on necessity, part of the teaching takes place online in a distance learning format. However, teachers lack basic digital skills, and the teaching methods they use are outdated. Due to the war, the state budget intended to support education reforms in Ukraine is limited, and no international donor offers a systematic approach to developing the educational technology and digital skills of school staff to make learning more inclusive. 👩🏫 In Ukraine's Zhytomyr and Chernihiv regions, we are conducting digital competency trainings using the Training of Trainers (ToT) model. This involves educating 120 trainers who will then continue sharing their knowledge to 1,200 of their colleagues. Teachers recognize the need to improve digital capabilities—many who completed the training used the school holidays to share knowledge with their colleagues. 🤔 We also observed the importance of these trainings, especially for the older generation, whose digital skills are weaker. At first, every task, from turning on computers, took a long time; teachers didn’t know their usernames or passwords, a few made handwritten notes of every step while taking advantage of daily opportunities for additional consultations. 👉 Let's provide teachers with skills they can pass on to their schools and communities! This project is funded by Estonian Centre for International Development (ESTDEV). 🇪🇪🤝🇺🇦 #ESTDEV #FromThePeopleOfEstonia

  • Iti Aavik is the Citizen of the Year! 👏🎉✨ Iti is a versatile and inspiring leader in civil society and a role model for everyone striving to create a better future through their actions. 😊 In her acceptance speech yesterday, Iti said that if we want to raise active citizens who contribute to society, we must start early by considering what kind of role models we offer to young people and children through our own actions. She also emphasized the importance of making them feel that their actions have an impact and a voice, and encouraging them to be active citizens in the future. "This is not only the responsibility of parents and teachers but a concern for all of us, as it determines the kind of society we wish to live in tomorrow." Iti is also part of our Mondo team, advancing women's rights in Armenia. 😊🇦🇲
