Abstract

The relevance of the study lies in the need to train student youth to provide psychological support and social integration of families of internally displaced persons through the use of innovative methods, such as making in the field of decorative and applied creativity. In the conditions of military operations in Ukraine and mass displacement of citizens, it is urgent to find effective ways of providing assistance to this category of population, in particular through creativity and educational initiatives. The main goal of the study was to highlight the practical experience of involving students - future teachers of technology in the use of making in the field of decorative and applied creativity in working with families of forced migrants, as well as to analyze the effectiveness of these approaches to reduce the level of stress and anxiety among participants. The research methods used included the analysis and generalization of scientific literature, empirical methods, processing and interpretation of the results of the maker activities. The results of the study demonstrate that making in the field of decorative and applied creativity is a means of art therapy, and making activities are effective for social integration for families of internally displaced persons. Involvement in creative activities within the framework of maker projects helps to reduce the level of stress and anxiety among participants, increases their self-esteem and helps restore a sense of control over the situation. The experience of organizing master classes and workshops has confirmed that the process of joint creation of decorative products not only promotes the manifestation of creative potential and the development of skills, but also creates conditions for the formation of new social ties. Participants of such events note the improvement of their emotional state and decrease in the feeling of social isolation. The introduction of makercraft in work with the families of internally displaced persons has a positive effect on the psychological state of the participants, helps to reduce the level of stress, increase self-esteem and strengthen social ties among the participants. Students - future teachers of technology gained valuable experience of interaction with families of forced migrants, which allowed them to improve their pedagogical skills in the field of technological education, to continue developing professional competence.
