Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills
Education and Supports Provision for Displaced Ukrainian Students: Discussion
Ms Clodagh Carroll:
If I may add one point on including the trauma-informed perspective in the summer programme, body-based interventions for trauma-informed care are important to include. That is releasing trauma from the body through breathing, sensory input and also outdoor activities. Allowing children to engage in physical activities in order to reduce the impact of trauma and release trauma from their bodies is an important perspective.
