Transcript (for teacher): "Good morning. Today I want to tell you about 'Hope for Children', an organization working in the region of East Veridia, which has experienced conflict for over five years. Their primary focus is not on delivering food, but on providing psychological support and safe spaces for education. They run three mobile schools that serve approximately 350 children who have been displaced from their homes. A major challenge they face is the constant movement of families, which makes continuous education difficult. However, their most significant achievement last year was training 50 local teenagers to become peer counselors, helping younger children cope with trauma."
