    War in Ukraine: Do Negotiations Stand a Chance? 10 points from the Initiative Mediation Support Deutschland (March 2022))

    Recent weeks have seen discussions, equally intense and controversial, over whether ongoing negotiations
    for humanitarian measures – let alone for ending the war that the Russian leader has been waging against
    Ukraine – have any chance of success, or whether they are negotiations in name only, doomed to failure.
    Given the basic questions raised in this context, we wish to contribute the following considerations – from
    the areas of negotiations theory and mediation methodology – to what otherwise has been a primarily polit-
    ical, military-strategic and morally oriented public debate

    How to talk to people in bunkers

    So many Ukrainans who live abroad or had to flee communicate with their family members or friends who have to stay in cellars, metro stations, bomb shelters and try to provide remote phychological support while their own heart is broken, too. On request of a network of Ukrainian expatriates, we drafted a short guidance for 'How to talk to people in bunkers' in Ukrainan, Russian and English. It is based on the recent experience of our Armenian collegue who found shelter in bunkers during the 44-day war in 2020, on psychological first aid concepts and our work with war-affected people in the Western Balkans, South Cuasus and Nepal. Hope it can be of a little help.
