Care and Cope: Nurturing resilience and self-care in women carers facing loss and life's pivotal changes.

<< Objectives >>We aim to support women carers of ailing spouses, parents, and loved ones by providing self-care tools, resilience training, and methodologies for managing grief, loss, and emotional fatigue. Carers face burnout, isolation, and difficulty reintegrating into employment after caregiving. Through training resources and a support network, we empower them to navigate these challenges, rebuild confidence, and prioritize their well-being during and after caregiving.<< Implementation >>We will develop a manual and a structured methodology to support women carers in building resilience and practicing self-care. A Train-the-Trainers event will equip facilitators with the skills to implement the methodology effectively. A series of hybrid and face-to-face workshops will provide practical application opportunities for participants. The project will conclude with two final events to showcase outcomes, share insights, and promote the sustainability of the initiative.<< Results >>We expect the project to equip women carers with practical self-care tools, resilience strategies, and methodologies to manage emotional fatigue, burnout, and the challenges of reintegration. The manual & methodology will serve as lasting resources for ongoing support. The Train-the-Trainers event will ensure sustainability by creating a network of facilitators. Participants in the workshops will gain skills to improve their well-being, while the final events will raise awareness and visibility.
