Esports Helping Ukrainian Veterans Reintegrate Into Society

Esports Helping Ukrainian Veterans Reintegrate Into Society

Ukrainian war veterans are using esports to help them adjust back to normal life after being in the war.

Denys Davydov, who is in charge of Ukraine's Esport Commission, says that this program helps veterans feel less out of place.

Esports gives them a way to compete and also helps them mentally relax.

It can also help them connect with their families again and improve their mental health.

Esports is even helpful for veterans who have lost their ability to move around and are recovering.

Plus, it helps improve focus and cognitive skills.
