The aim of the project is the dissemination of knowledge in society from the necessity of prevention of emotional burnout syndrome. "The public is imposed stereotype: the journalists are the "watchdogs of democracy". Having spent nearly 20 years in the media field, I do not agree with this rather harsh and incorrect formulations. Journalists, in my view, information filtering, which produces the society. And the filters must be periodically "clean up". Not everyone is able to do it yourself. To support media workers in their hard work, the project was developed, "Palau – not shorai!". The experience gained during the project will be useful for the participants," believes the Chairman of the NGO "SPINOZA" Nataliya jurbenko. Format training groups and during individual counselling journalists learn to monitor their feelings, to treat them with care, to defend them. "Syndrome of emotional burnout is an extremely common phenomenon, regardless of profession. However, media professionals, creative people and are constantly in the information flow, so the risk of "burnout", they are not the high. While working in groups, participants will be the ability to see the situation from the outside, not being involved in the manipulation and provocation, as well as an understanding of the necessity of enhancing their own consciousness and use acquired knowledge in professional activity and preserving their own mental health in the conditions of excessive workload," says psychologist Natalya Stanchuk.
