Abstract

The article presents the results of a study on social and pedagogical activity in Ukraine in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war, including current trends in the work of a social pedagogue in the educational sphere. The emphasis is placed on the importance of social and pedagogical/social work in the context of the war, which has caused significant challenges in the humanitarian sphere. The importance of support from the international community is emphasized, particularly in the social sphere (providing shelter for Ukrainian refugees, supporting the education of Ukrainian children displaced to other regions and abroad, humanitarian aid at the beginning of the fullscale war, etc.). The research methodology includes methods of theoretical and empirical analysis, including theoretical analysis of international guidelines for social and pedagogical/social work; empirical analysis of normative and instructional documents on the activities of a social pedagogue in the educational sphere, including in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war; empirical (qualitative) analysis of essays by students of the specialty "social work" of the University "Ukraine" (Kyiv, Ukraine) on the topic "Social pedagogy: essence and importance in the context of the Russian-Ukrainian war"; generalization and systematization of research results. Due to the specifics of the research, we gave preference to the qualitative methodology. The results of the study allowed us to generalize the current trends in social and pedagogical activity in the educational sphere. These include: creation of a psychologically comfortable educational environment for all participants in the educational process (pupils, teachers, parents); providing psychosocial support to students affected by the war (children from families of combatants, children from families of internally displaced persons, etc.); implementation of measures for social adaptation and rehabilitation; formation of a culture of safety and other competencies important in the context of war, etc.
