C2P’s Lucy Hillier will talk to Jamie Lachman, founder and director of Clowns Without Borders South Africa, about the “Parenting for Lifelong Health” programme which is being implementing in several countries in the ESA region. Together we will consider the strengths of the approach embodied by the programme, what has been learned so far, and the implications for children’s care. We will also discuss experiences implementing the programme in different countries and contexts. There will be an opportunity for participants to ask Jamie questions during the interview.
