Tell that person where you are going and when you should arrive.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0Exercise extreme caution when giving your personal details to others, including on social media.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0If a stranger offers help and something doesn\u2019t feel right, trust your instinct.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>If you&#8217;re travelling with children:<\/h3>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0Teach your children their full names, your full name and your phone number. Have them practice repeating it.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0Identify a meeting point and plan to go there in case you get separated from your children.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0For very small children, prepare an identity tag (like a bracelet or something attached to their clothing) with the child\u2019s name and your contact details.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0For children with mobile phones, save your contact as &#8216;AA Emergency Contact 1&#8217; and that of a trusted loved one as &#8216;AA Emergency Contact 2,&#8217; etc.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0Talk to your children about the potential risks of travelling and encourage them to share with you anything that may be worrying them.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0As much as possible, allow your children time to rest, sleep and even play while travelling.<\/p>\n<p>\u274c Don\u2019t allow your children to be taken out of your sight or to any location without you.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0If anyone is acting or threatening to act violent against you or your children, seek immediate safety before informing the authorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 While travelling, hold your child&#8217;s hand or take other precautions to keep them close.<\/p>\n<p>\u274c Beware of anyone offering you a job, shelter or education for your children. Don&#8217;t accept offers of services or support from anyone other than an authorized official.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>If you&#8217;re helping an unaccompanied child:<\/h3>\n<p>\u274c Don\u2019t assume the child is lost. A parent or caregiver may be close by.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0Ask others in the immediate vicinity if they know the child. Ask for the child&#8217;s name and other family details.<\/p>\n<p>\u274c Don\u2019t accept help from any stranger who offers to escort the child to safety.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0Keep the child&#8217;s belongings with her at all times. These might help authorities trace her family.<\/p>\n<p>\u274c Don\u2019t share information about the child with anyone else, aside from competent authorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Contact a competent authority \u2013 such as the local municipality government, border police, or Ukraine\u2019s consular services in the host country. Share the child\u2019s information and location, and follow the authority\u2019s instructions.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705 Explain to the child what will happen next, without promising to find his parents. This could cause him additional confusion or distress.<\/p>\n<p>\u2705\u00a0Don&#8217;t leave the child until she is safely in the hands of a competent authority.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n<p>By <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unicef.org\/eca\/resources-and-helplines-families-fleeing-ukraine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">UNICEF<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span class=\"layout layout_size_m layout_type_2pane layout_vertical-fit layout_letter\">Many victims don&#8217;t know whom to turn to and their friends don&#8217;t know how to help, especially if the victim is in another country. <\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"layout layout_size_m layout_type_2pane layout_vertical-fit layout_letter\"> It&#8217;s a full GLOBAL list of international help centers and organizations all over the world.<\/span><\/h4>\n<h3 id=\"title\" class=\"post-title\" data-i18n=\"title#post-13900\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.mysticmag.com\/psychic-reading\/domestic-violence-resource-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">International Domestic Violence Resource Guide (2023)<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to receive essential services, protection and other support if you&#8217;re a refugee from Ukraine entering a neighbouring country.
