It also emerges from structural factors such as economic insecurity, institutional violence or social exclusion. Young people and the professionals who work with them describe and interpret trauma differently depending on their cultural context.<\/p>\n<p>The study highlights the importance of informal support networks \u2014 friendships, community creativity, local cultural knowledge, sports and community spaces \u2014 which often play a crucial role, especially when formal services are limited. It also notes that educators, mediators and social workers are frequently the first point of contact for trauma, yet they often lack resources, training and institutional support.<\/p>\n<p>In response, the report introduces the framework of \u201ctransformative trauma-sensitivity\u201d, which integrates multiple forms of knowledge (embodied, cultural and historical), combines individual and structural perspectives, strengthens youth agency and promotes practices consistent with the safe environments communities seek to build.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The full report is available <a href=\"https:\/\/webreeze.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Report-02.10.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/6&#8243;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]The BREEZE project analyses experiences from Georgia, Germany, Spain and Ukraine, and introduces the framework of \u201ctransformative trauma-sensitivity\u201d. &nbsp; NOVACT has participated in the new report Toward Transformative Trauma-Sensitivity in Youth Work and Peace Education, a comparative study developed within the European BREEZE project.
