The Parenting Forum was developed in collaboration with a group of parents, who envisioned it as a welcoming space for self-reflection and learning, where parents can better understand their own challenges and identify solutions from within. At the same time, it provides an opportunity to meet other parents and members of the community in a supportive environment, free from judgement or institutional constraints.
The Forum will be held in person on a bimonthly basis. Each session is expected to last approximately one and a half hours. As for the venue, it has been suggested that the Forum should rotate between different locations across the municipality. Initial proposals include the Municipal Library, the Municipal Council’s Noble Hall, and a local café to be selected.
Parents also suggested inviting guest experts according to the topics being discussed, and that light refreshments should be provided at every session.
The Parenting Forum is scheduled to launch in September 2026.

More detailed information, including the registration link for each Forum session, will be available here soon.
