Refugee parents face particular challenges, when they arrive in a new country. In this project parents are approached by certified, intercultural facilitators, who speak their first languages and understand their socio-cultural background. The approach throughout the six-week training is strenths- and resource-based. The aim is to reflect personal parenting styles and to provide knowledge about child development and needs as well as parenting skills to solve family conflicts and to educate without violence.
