The podcasts “Growing Up Safely: The Power of Stories and Narratives in Protecting Children” are now live!
In this series, parents, professionals and volunteers discuss the prevention of violence against children. They share how they shifted attitudes, refined their pedagogical approaches and strengthened the children’s respect and participation.
In the first episode, the series’ hostess, lawyer and author Maria Topali, converses with Elpida about raising a child with special needs -about the challenges, acceptance and moments when sensitivity opens new paths.
In the second episode, she talks with Athina about parental expectations, their effect on children and the importance of listening more to our children.
