The masterclass about the intergenerational
transmission of trauma that would have taken place on the 21st of April will be postponed as a result of the
restrictions brought about by the coronavirus pandemic. The masterclass will
now take place on Tuesday 27th of October from 01.30 till 06.00 PM in
Amsterdam. You do not have to register again for this meeting. In the
autumn we will send you more information about the programme, location and
speakers.
War
Child moves to awareness-raising and prevention
I
am incredibly proud that so many of my colleagues have come up with creative
solutions on how to continue to protect children in war, despite the pandemic.
We distribute hygiene kits and educate children and their parents how to shield
their children from the coronavirus. We try to reach as many children as
possible by telephone, internet and with special messages on radio stations and
sound systems in refugee camps. We provide distance education so that children
don't fall behind even more in learning. And we support refugee children with
psychosocial aid packages. Each package contains educational games and exercises.
Because every child needs protection, even in this crisis.
