Some of the most basic activities of our company are the following: – Presentations – Conferences – Lectures – Workshops for teachers, parents and students on the prevention and treatment of violence in schools. – The implementation of programs concerning: the institution of Mediation (in particular family mediation & school mediation or mediation in labor disputes), anger management, prevention of violence in schools, non-violent communication as well as restorative practices (such as restorative dialogues in a circle) in the context of restorative justice. The techniques we use to implement the programs are experiential, interactive and in addition to the theoretical framework we use mainly role-playing games and simulations. Some of the basic and most important objectives of our psychoeducational programs aiming at children and teenagers are the following: i) To explore, understand and overcome dysfunctional behaviour models. ii) To develop social and communication skills. iii) To train in recognizing, managing and expressing emotions. iv)To strengthen the self-esteem of the participants. v) To help adopt more effective reactions in confrontational situations. vi) To provide knowledge to prevent and handle future anger – provoking difficulties. vii) To support the belief that the ability to change is within oneself. Our programs aim at: a) helping children, teenagers and adults develop their social skills and learn techniques how to better manage their anger and peacefully resolve potential conflicts, and b) promoting effective teamwork and understanding of the notions of anger, rights, respect for diversity, conciliation and solidarity in an experiential manner using non-formal learning approach and methodology. Our main goal is also the protection and defense of the rights of individuals belonging to vulnerable social groups or those suffering discrimination, their empowerment so that they can express their needs and gain access to services allowing them to make choices. We promote the concept of participation, based on the premise that all people, including children, young people and those belonging to vulnerable social groups have the right to express their opinion on decisions affecting them and learn to claim their rights.
