| Description | Today, the effects of the COVID19 pandemic are still reverberating, the world community is facing war in Ukraine, we are more consciously experiencing climate change and many people in the Euro-Atlantic area are experiencing unprecedented socio-economic difficulties. For many young people who are just preparing for their active lives, these crises show the world as an uncertain and dangerous place [1].

In my study I will thus address the question: "How, from the position of V.E. Frankl's existential analysis and logotherapy, can adolescents and their life situation be addressed in an era of societal crises? |
