Cultural considerations to support children from migrant and refugee backgrounds

Year: 2020
Australian Institute of Family Studies

A practitioner’s personal values and beliefs about parenting and child-rearing can influence their ability to address the mental health and wellbeing needs of children and families from migrant and refugee backgrounds.

Evidence suggests that reflexive practice could generate greater support and understanding of children and their families from diverse cultural backgrounds.

This webinar explored the importance of ‘culturally competent’, ‘culturally curious’ and ‘child-focused’ practices along with examples of organisational initiatives and practice approaches.
