FTAI Statement on Ukraine

The Family Therapy Association of Ireland Executive committee wishes to stand with our European Family Therapy Association colleagues in condemning the Russian invasion of Ukraine on the 21st of February 2022.

The suffering of innocent people on both sides, the displacement of millions and the catastrophic  loss of life, is an appalling violation of human rights and cannot be condoned by us.   We must stand  together as human citizens of this planet and act to assist those caught up in this devastating war. The  emotional and mental impact on all involved cannot be underestimated and it is imperative that we  oppose tyranny and support democracy at every opportunity, with a fervent wish for a speedy resolution to this awful conflict.
