Outreach work with parents

Parents with children up to the end of primary school age, who for various reasons are ill-equipped to accompany and support those children in their development and education, are assisted by intercultural mediators in understanding the local education and health care systems, in getting to know and making use of schemes for pre-schoolers and school-age children and in accompanying their children as best they can in their development process.

Experts from the education and health sectors can also interact with the intercultural mediators so as to further enhance their intercultural skills. The outreach pilot project thus helps to avoid misunderstandings and improve the developmental and educational outlook for the children being assisted.
