Investing in Children Round Table

The International Round Table will deal with the following discussion questions: 

• What are the impacts of family structure and poverty on outcomes for children? 
• Do those outcomes mean intergenerational transmission of poverty? 
• How can character and citizenship education contribute to breaking the cycle of disadvantage?

The World Family Map Project has studied the consequences of social and cultural contexts and processes on individuals (the children). It is time to discuss how their flourishing as social actors can contribute to tackling socio–cultural problems.

In consequence, the project has 2 main goals:

• To discuss from an interdisciplinary perspective the evidence and recommendations made by the World Family Map project team.
• To facilitate an agreement on concrete recommendations for policy and decision making.
