ICDP activities reported by the Relational Psychology Institute (www.relationspsykologi.dk):
In 2024 we had a year with many care professionals being trained through our ICDP activities. These activities had a great impact on children at the local children nurseries and in schools, but it also meant a great deal to parents. It also had an impact in the work environment of care professionals. One of the care professionals at a school describes the impact of ICDP likes this:
“I was a little skeptical about what ICDP would change in my pedagogical practice. Would it just be another “fancy model” that would quietly be shelved with many other initiatives. I was very positively surprised by how effective ICDP has been for me and how quickly I cou;d see results from the changes I made. I quickly experienced gains in my relationships with all the children in my class, througth the 8 interaction themes. Small adjustments have a big effect.”
In 2025, we will continue to work with local municipalities and organizations to implement ICDP in schools and childrens nurseries. At the same time we will continue to draw attention to the impact of ICDP across society in Denmark, because we would like to work with ICDP in other areas as well, so more care professionals, volunteers and parents can benefit from ICDP.
