Transgender child
The Ombudsman for Children in Iceland participated as a partner organization in the project entitled: Transgender Child – an effective support system in school
The goal of this nationwide Polish project: "Transgender Child – an effective support system in schools" is to prevent and lower the levels of discrimination and violence resulting from prejudices against LGBTQIA+ persons, mostly transgender persons, in Polish (primary and secondary) schools.
With the development of a special guide as well as a number of other activities included in the project, participating organizations want to support school managers and psycho-pedagogical staff - content- and concept-wise - in the process of designing and implementing inclusive solutions. Based on the experience of schools in Iceland, taking into account the very nature of Polish schools and thanks to specially designed studies, the solution that will emerge will be not only innovative but, above all, practical.
The leading organization in the project is Fundacja Psycho-Edukacja (Foundation for Psychoeducation) partnering with Warszawskie Centrum Innowacji Edukacyjno-Społecznych i Szkoleń (Warsaw Centre for Education and Social Innovations and Trainings).
