Abstract

This paper examines the interviews with four Ukrainian women – war refugees, who came to Poland after February 24, 2022 (two of them were reinterviewed after a year of their stay in Poland). The authors were interested in the description of the crisis in which the respondents found themselves, as well as in their presentation of coping with crisis, thus, “coping with crisis” became the main interpretive category. The research aims to reveal the self-image of the women refugees and identify changes that have taken place in 2022 and 2023 (including the perception of themselves, war context, and living conditions to which they have adapted
after fleeing). The authors used the multidisciplinary theoretical approach because, in addition to psychological concepts related to the main interpretative category, the reflection was based on the cultural anthropology of emotions, the anthropology of experience, as well as on the ethics of care, and autoethnography
