Parlare di guerra e di pace a scuola e in famiglia

A meeting aimed at parents, educators and teachers on how to deal with current issues, especially when the current situation is dramatic, together with girls and boys and girls, and build a dialogue between generations.

Great harmony between the speakers regarding the listening of girls and boys, girls and boys, creating an alliance with adults.

We interviewed the speakers, starting with Carla Rinaldi, president of the Reggio Children’s Foundation: "War cannot be "explained", but with the children try to grow up together in a world where wars disappear but above all where there is greater solidarity between everyone, also between adults and children, and young people. Growing up together".

The two journalists who ran the festival, Alberto Emiletti and Martina Recchiuti, spoke to the editorial staff of Internazionale Kids.


According to Alberto Emiletti "it was a nice meeting in which many ideas emerged and the central element was that of listening. To be able to listen to ourselves, our emotions, but especially the emotions of children and children and work together around the news and think about it together".


Martina Recchiuti explained the editorial work on this subject. An editorial board convinced that the news should be told and that compares, as is in the nature of Internazionale, with the choices made by the best newspapers in the world, even in the field of young people: "We are convinced that the news must be told, not hidden, it is necessary to find the right way and the right tone in the right way, without frightening but to inform".

Giacomo Petitti de Roreto, director of Reattiva, facilitator, educator: "How to tell the war to children? Starting with the children. How do you feel about what happens? And what is your opinion? These are the two questions that make up and train critical thinking, and our responsibility is precisely to provide tools for boys and girls with the necessary skills to deal with such dramatic events, manage their emotions and reason with their heads". 

Another beautiful and attended edition that ends...see you next year!
