Germany has funded inclusive classrooms in kindergartens in the Mykolaiv region

Inclusive resource rooms have been set up in kindergartens across the Mykolaiv region with support from the German government and UNICEF. These new spaces will enable more than 1,620 children to receive assistance from specialists and develop in a specially equipped environment.

This was reported by the German Embassy in Ukraine.

The inclusive resource rooms were created in six preschool institutions in the Mykolaiv region as part of a project implemented by UNICEF with support from the German government.

Thanks to the new spaces, more than 1,620 children will be able to attend individual and group sessions with a speech therapist, special education teacher, and psychologist.

The rooms are equipped with special tools for teaching, development, and psychological support for children. In particular, they feature ball pits, swings, hammocks, soft play modules, and sand tables, which help restore emotional balance. The spaces are also equipped with interactive panels, LEGO tables, and activity boards to develop memory, attention, fine motor skills, and imagination.

The German Embassy noted that such resource rooms are particularly important for children with special educational needs, as they create more opportunities for learning, social interaction, and well-rounded development.

In addition to equipping the facilities, UNICEF, in collaboration with the All-Ukrainian Foundation “Step by Step,” is conducting training for more than 200 educators so they can effectively use the new equipment when working with children.

The project was implemented in cooperation between UNICEF and the Mykolaiv City Council’s Department of Education, with support from the German government.

Earlier,Frederick Korpato, a man from Switzerland, cycled over 1,000 kilometers through several European countries to Ukraine to raise funds for the repair of shelters in Mykolaiv’s educational institutions.

As a reminder, in 2025, Mykolaiv received over 2 billion hryvnias ininternational aid.
