Developing Strength and Resilience in Children
25/10/2010 - Submitted by: Tilia Bousios
The Norwegian NGO Voksne for Barn invites you to an international conference with the following thematic focus:
- How to develop good schools promoting children’s wellbeing and mental health
- How to prevent mental health problems and illness in children at risk – the Second International Conference on Children with Mentally Ill Parents (COPMI 2).
We welcome all participants who work with or are responsible for children in schools, in the community health service or in the specialized health service. We will present updated knowledge in fields relating to the conference topics, and show new ways of giving children an opportunity to develop strength and joy in life.
There will be parallel sessions both days where the main objective is to emphasize how we can create a supportive and empowering environment in schools and the community for children and adolescents through:
- Research connected to health promotion and prevention
- Interventions – main focus in programmes and methods of social and emotional learning
- Implementation of theory and methods
- Experience-based knowledge
