Non violent child rearing in Suriname

This was a joint project of the Surinamese foundation ‘Gezin en Recht’ and ICDI.

Over 400 staff of the police, military as well as parents and educators were trained. These people learned new approaches of educating and disciplining children without hurting, abusing or bullying them, something which continues to be a big problem for many young people in Suriname.

ICDI gave several trainings and was involved in drafting a manual.
