The article substantiates the challenges faced by the educational community in the professional training of future specialists in a state of war. Significant attention is paid to the problem of creating a safe, inclusive educational environment for students with special educational needs (SEN), who are often more vulnerable to stressful situations. Inclusive education is interpreted as an important factor in supporting and adapting students in crisis situations. An analysis of current scientific literature was carried out, which made it possible to determine the main factors of the war's impact on the mental health of educational process participants. Modern Ukrainian universities are presented as spaces for academic growth, psychological and pedagogical support, and student assistance in crisis conditions (war). The results of a survey of higher education students are presented, which helped to identify their real emotional and psychological state, as well as their needs for psychological support. The research results confirm a high level of anxiety, stress, and psycho-emotional exhaustion among students, as constant air raid sirens, shelling, news from the front, and combining studies with volunteer or military activities create a significant mental burden. Based on the data obtained, the article presents strategies for creating a safe and supportive inclusive educational environment, including increasing the psychological resilience of students with disabilities in a crisis, developing self-regulation skills, and ensuring access to qualified psychological assistance. The materials of the article can be useful for educators, psychologists, higher education institution administrators, and all those involved in organizing the inclusive educational process in crisis conditions.
