The aim of the project is to change social awareness in the area of separation-related conflicts and, in particular, to draw attention to children’s protection from emotional violence committed by their relatives. The project includes three areas of activity. Within the first area, we will implement our own model of working with parents who are separating in a conflict and pose a threat of violence against a child. We will conduct educational workshops for parents, provide them with support from therapists and mediators, which will help children be better protected. In the second area, in cooperation with the Czech mediation center from Brno, we will use a new tool – mediation process with children’s participation. Research shows that this type of mediation increases the sustainability of the applied solutions and the satisfaction of both parents and children involved. In the third area of activity, we will host webinars and conferences dedicated to the exchange of experience between representatives of institutions working with families at different stages of a divorce-related crisis.
