The article substantiates the ways of strategizing to support the mental health of refugee women from Ukraine, in particular, the basic terms are clarified, in particular, «strategizing», «refugee» and «mental health»; the results of an empirical study conducted according to the questionnaire «Emotional disturbances under conditions of stress in refugee women from Ukraine» are presented.
Two strategic areas of support for refugee women from Ukraine have been identified: 1) Implementation of national (coordinated with the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Health) rehabilitation programs of personal psycho-emotional support for Ukrainian women who have the status of refugees and/or internally displaced persons. These programs should include approved psychosocial care protocols, because the experience of specialists involved in such work is mostly insufficient and does not meet international standards. 2) State policy on socio-economic support for women who have the status of refugees and/or internally displaced persons, because this is a link of hope for returning home. This connection is very important, it is not about finances, rather it is about morality, spiritual and national unity, about the place of strength that is the motherland.
Strategizing to support the mental health of refugee women from Ukraine includes meaningful and organizational and methodological provisions and procedures that regulate and ensure the process of policy development and implementation (state-wide, regional, municipal and branch (medical, educational, etc.) (other) levels) regarding the support of women's mental health during periods of war and post-war recovery of the country.
