”En de kinderen scheiden mee…”

Als ouders scheiden, scheiden de kinderen mee.

Themabijeenkomst over het voorkomen en verminderen van problemen voortvloeiend uit een echtscheiding. Speciale aandacht voor de kinderen en hun verwerking van de echtscheiding.

Wanneer?
Donderdag 24 mei 2012 van 19.30 tot ± 21.30 uur. Vanaf 19.00 uur staat de koffie/thee voor u klaar.

Waar?
Kulturhus de Breehoek

3925 JP Scherpenzeel

Voor wie?
Iedereen die zelf of in zijn of haar omgeving te maken krijgt met een echtscheiding waarbij kinderen betrokken zijn, zoals (groot)ouders, familie, leerkrachten en hulpverleners.

Waarom?
Een scheiding: jaarlijks krijgen 70.000 kinderen ermee te maken (1 op 6). In een derde van de gevallen gaat dat gepaard met problemen die kinderen hun levenlang kunnen blijven achtervolgen. Conflicten zijn de grootste boosdoener. Op het moment dat een echtscheiding gepaard gaat met verbale conflicten en/of psychologische gevechten, ondervindt 30% van de kinderen problemen op het vlak van gedrag, leren, gevoel en relaties aangaan.

Wat kunt u verwachten?
• Uitleg over het thema “En de kinderen scheiden mee….”

“Cultural Diplomacy and Soft Power in an Interdependent World: The Opportunities of Global Governance”
(New York, February 21st – 24th, 2012)
www.un-culturaldiplomacy-conference.org


The Institute for Cultural Diplomacy is currently accepting applications for our forth coming event, which will take place in New York City from February 21st – 24th, 2012. The event will bring together government and diplomatic officials, civil society practitioners, private sector representatives, journalists, young professionals, students and scholars, and other interested stakeholders from across the world for a program of lectures, workshops, panel and group discussions and social and cultural activities featuring leading figures from the fields of politics, the arts, academia, media, and business.

The “Conference on The United Nations and Cultural Diplomacy” is one of a three–part series of International Conferences held by the ICD on the issue of ‘International Institutions and Global Governance: The Role of Cultural Diplomacy’. The aim of the conference this year is to reflect on the role of institutions such as the United Nations within the international system, on global governance as a whole in terms of key international issues and on how Cultural Diplomacy takes place. The program will consist of lectures, seminars, debates and panel discussions that will feature leading figures from international politics & diplomacy, academia, civil society, and the private sector.

In an age of international instability and discontent, the United Nations marked a transition towards a more ‘soft’ power-based approach to international relations. With its specific aim to foster peace and cooperation agreements, the United Nations was the first institution to focus on relations between states and international understanding. Cultural Diplomacy is becoming increasingly important within international relations and The Institute for Cultural Diplomacy reflects the desire to expand on this work.

This conference will focus on and analyze the probability of Cultural Diplomacy representing a useful tool for fostering international cooperation within an institutional framework and within the wider global government.

The 2011 conference will bring together renowned speakers from across the world for varied discourse, proceeding from the premise that China's future has the potential to result in a seismic shift in global politics.

The issues raised during the conference will be discussed from a range of interdisciplinary perspectives and academic backgrounds, examining the issues that are currently defining the internal and external development of China. Key historical relationships will be analyzed, new strategic partnerships considered, and experts will offer their views on what path China should follow on the international stage, highlighting areas of global agreement and areas where greater cooperation is needed. With the continued expansion of the Confucius institutes, China has embraced the fundamentals of cultural exchange, and is in fact setting a global example for the power of cultural dissemination. In practical terms, the application of cultural diplomacy and soft power as tools in international relations will be considered in detail.

The ICD Academy for Cultural Diplomacy
"A Three Piece Puzzle: The Relationship between Culture, International Relations and Globalization"
(Berlin, June 10th - 16th, 2011)

Introduction
ICD Academy Sessions are weeklong programs that explore the role of cultural diplomacy in contemporary international relations. Each program features lectures, seminars and workshops lead by experts from the fields of international politics, diplomacy, academia, civil society, and the private sector. During their time in Berlin participants will also have the opportunity to take part in cultural and social activities and to visit institutions such as the German Foreign Office, the German Parliament, the Berlin City Hall, cultural institutions and Berlin-based embassies.

The ICD Academy was established to allow individuals of all academic and professional backgrounds the opportunity to learn more about the subject of cultural diplomacy. In recognition of the growing interdependence of individual nation states, and the increasing role of non-governmental organizations in international affairs, the importance of cross-cultural exchange based on dialogue, understanding, and trust is under ever more focus. Each Academy Session will therefore seek to explore the history and development of cultural diplomacy, with a particular focus on the state-sponsored cultural diplomacy of the cold war, and then to evaluate the development of the concept and its application by different actors across the world today.

The Academy Session timetables are designed to allow participants the opportunity to discuss salient issues with experts from the field, whilst providing a framework for group discussions amongst each other. Further information about the academy methodology, speakers, and locations, as well as the application form, can be accessed using the links on the left hand side.


Certificate of Attendance
All academy participants will be awarded an official certificate of attendance upon completion of the program, which will provide details of the speakers who took part and the topics discussed. Each certificate will be signed by members of the ICD's Advisory Board.

Program Agenda
The June Session of the ICD Academy for Cultural Diplomacy will take place in Berlin from June 10th - 16th 2011 and will focus on the following theme:

"A Three Piece Puzzle: The Relationship between Culture, International Relations and Globalization"

In addition to looking in greater detail at the history and development of cultural diplomacy, the next academy session will explore the influence that culture has on domestic policies and international relations. Academics, artists, politicians, and informed commentators will reflect on the extent to which culture influences a country's Daily life, foreign policy, and the partners it will work with.

Integral to this part of the program is a focus on the concepts of "smart power" and "cultural diplomacy"; the meaning of these terms and their application in contemporary domestic and international relations.

Sustainable Network >
Academy Session participants become part of a growing international network of people from across the world with different fields of interest and levels of experience who share a commitment to intercultural exchange. Participants will be able to remain in touch with each other through the ICD Online Network.

Op donderdag 6 oktober 2011 organiseert Kind en echtscheiding.nl het eerste congres “Scheiden: Kind en ouderschap”: Een nieuwe multidisciplinaire methode om scheidingsproblemen bij het kind te beperken.
Het congres vindt plaats in de Efteling te Kaatsheuvel met sprekers als Martine Delfos, Ed Spruijt, Liesbeth Groenhuijsen, Rik Smit en Rini Stoutjesdijk. Hans van Breukelen zal als dagvoorzitter optreden.

Voor wie?
Het congres is bestemd voor advocaten, mediators, notarissen, psychologen, orthopedagogen, maatschappelijk werkers, medewerkers van Centra voor Jeugd en Gezin, Bureau Jeugdzorg, Raad voor de Kinderbescherming, rechters, onderwijzers, Interne Begeleiders, vertrouwenspersonen etc. Andere geïnteresseerden of deskundigen die binnen hun werkveld direct of indirect te maken hebben met scheidingskinderen zijn uiteraard van harte uitgenodigd.

Waarom?
Uit onderzoek blijkt dat jaarlijks ca. 57.000 (minderjarige) kinderen te horen krijgen dat hun ouders gaan scheiden. Al deze kinderen ervaren in meer of mindere mate problemen in hun ontwikkeling door de scheiding, zowel op de korte als op de lange termijn. Ook voor ouders is de belasting groot. Helaas wijst onderzoek uit dat er momenteel naar schatting slechts circa 5% van de scheidingskinderen bereikt wordt.
De in maart 2009 aangenomen wet “Bevordering voortgezet ouderschap en zorgvuldige scheiding” heeft getracht een bijdrage te leveren aan de beperking van scheidingsproblemen bij kinderen. Dit door ouders verplicht afspraken te laten maken over hun kinderen. De intentie van de wet is goed, maar helaas blijkt uit de dagelijkse praktijk dat alleen een wet geen waarborg geeft voor de belangen van het kind.
Wij geloven, dat daarnaast problemen als versplintering van het huidige aanbod, onvoldoende samenwerking tussen instanties en ontbrekende (preventieve) begeleiding voor ouders en kinderen gedurende een langere periode, hierin een grote rol spelen.

Tijdens het congres komen vragen aan de orde als:
• Hoe kom je tot een gefundeerd pedagogisch ouderschapsplan?
• Hoe herken je scheidingsgerelateerde problemen bij het kind?
• Hoe kun je het belang van het kind op korte en lange termijn waarborgen?
• Hoe kunnen ouders tot een functionele samenwerking komen in het belang van hun kind?
• Hoe kan het bestaande hulpaanbod op elkaar afgestemd worden met inachtneming van elkaars sterke kanten?
• Hoe kunnen professionals samen het hulpaanbod op een kwalitatief niveau aanbieden en deze kwaliteit waarborgen?

Kosten voor deelname
Kosten voor deelname bedragen € 295,- excl. BTW p.p., inclusief lunch en consumpties. Wij hanteren een korting van € 25,- bij aanmelding vóór 1 mei 2011.

The International Symposium on Cultural Diplomacy 2011
“Hard Vs. Soft Power in Local and Global Politics: Redefining Concepts of Power and Influence in an Age of Interdependence, Digital Revolution, and Social Media”
(Berlin, 11th-15th May 2011)
[www.culturaldiplomacy.org]

The change over the past two decades from an international system based on independent nation states to an interdependent world facing global challenges has been widely explored and analyzed. At the level of international relations the change is accompanied by a growing understanding of the importance of global public goods. Activity to tackle climate change, for example, can no longer be pursued by individual states acting alone. Similarly, issues that have traditionally been considered of domestic concern have been given an international dimension: national policies on immigration, healthcare, education, and economics must increasingly be coordinated with international partners.

In addition to the changes outlined above, a further development can be identified in national and international politics: Digital communication technologies and social media are revolutionizing the interaction between politicians and citizens. For politicians, new technologies are providing an easier, cheaper way of informing a broad range of people about new policies, opinions, and initiatives. For citizens, the diverse range of media that have emerged as a result of technological advancements means that they can keep up-do-date with developments around the world, in real time. Combined, these developments mean that interaction between politicians and citizens is intensified. Moreover, the information is flowing in two directions: Campaigns and initiatives launched from the blogosphere can be seen to influence the presentation of policy decisions, but also the policies themselves. In countries where traditional media are state controlled, social media have become a valuable mechanism to organize and execute protests, and express the “mood of the nation”.

The International Symposium on Cultural Diplomacy 2011 is being hosted to analyze these two developments: The sharing of power and responsibility horizontally, across national barriers, and vertically, between politicians and citizens.

Symposium Participants
The Symposium is open to applications from diplomatic and political representatives, civil society practitioners, private sector figures, journalists, young professionals, students and scholars, and other interested stakeholders in international relations from across the world.

De recent gelanceerde vernieuwde website Kind en echtscheiding.nl heeft als doel scheidingsgerelateerde problemen bij kinderen te beperken. Kind en echtscheiding.nl is een initiatief van Jack van Sabben, NMI-Mediator en Financieel Planner en Birgit Thijssen, Psycholoog NIP.

Scheidingsbemiddeling met aandacht voor het kind

Op de website staan scheidingsspecialisten vermeld die gebruik maken van de methode “Samen de Zorg”. Deze werkwijze is erop gebaseerd dat kinderen op een kindvriendelijke manier bij het scheidingsproces en het opstellen van het ouderschapsplan betrokken worden. De kinderen en hun ouders worden, gedurende langere tijd of zolang als wenselijk is, begeleidt. De ouders worden begeleid in het communiceren als ouders en niet als ex-partners. Ook worden ouders begeleidt in het leren omgaan met de nieuwe situatie en het opvoeden na een scheiding. De kinderen leren door de begeleiding de scheiding te accepteren, emoties te uiten en de scheiding te verwerken. Een groot voordeel van werkwijze “Samen de Zorg” is de vroege signalering van scheidingsgerelateerde problemen, een vaste procesbegeleider voor de ouders en een vaste vertrouwenspersoon die het kind gedurende langere tijd heeft.

Begeleiding van kind bij scheidingsproblemen

Het is belangrijk om een kind al zo vroeg mogelijk in het scheidingsproces te begeleiden. Dit is de beste manier om problemen te voorkomen. Toch zijn er tal van kinderen die al problemen hebben ontwikkeld door de scheiding van hun ouders. Voor deze kinderen wordt hulp op maat geboden. Op de website staat een overzicht van familiedeskundigen die deze kinderen begeleiden.

Voorlichting

De website heeft een belangrijke voorlichtingsfunctie. Kinderen kunnen in kindertaal lezen wat de scheiding voor hen betekent, welke gevoelens een rol spelen, waarom mensen scheiden, wat er allemaal geregeld moet worden en nog veel meer.

Ouders kunnen lezen over gevolgen van een scheiding voor hun kind en manieren om hiermee om te gaan en hun kind te helpen.

Ook dierbaren kunnen terecht op de website. Onder andere de volgende vragen komen aan bod: Hoe help je je kleinkind bij de scheiding van zijn ouders? Wat kun je wel en niet zeggen? Welke houding moet je aannemen als een dierbare gaat scheiden?

In het kader van voorlichting is er op de website een handig overzicht te vinden van boeken over scheiding voor peuters/kleuters, 6-8 jarigen, 9-12 jarigen, 13-18 jarigen, ouders, grootouders en stiefgezinnen.

Via de website Kind en echtscheiding.nl kunnen alle betrokkenen terecht voor meer informatie en het aanvragen van deskundige ondersteuning.]]> Birgit Thijssen mediation.startpagina.nl/prikbord Tue, 18 Jan 2011 15:13:12 +0100 http://mediation.startpagina.nl/prikbord/read.php?5151,13345065,13345065#msg-13345065 Happy New Year http://mediation.startpagina.nl/prikbord/read.php?5151,13345065,13345065#msg-13345065

Een echtscheiding aanvragen is vaak een moeilijke beslissing. Bovendien zijn de kosten van een echtscheiding vaak hoog. Mediation bij echtscheiding is de uitkomst. Een duurzame en relatief goedkope oplossing. De voorwaarde is dat u bereid bent om er samen uit te komen.

Professionele begeleiding?
Een mediator van The Mediators Company is thuis in zowel de emotionele, maar ook alle andere aspecten van het regelen van een echtscheiding. Vragen die onder meer beantwoord worden zijn: Hoe ziet uw nieuwe financiële situatie er uit?, wie blijft in de woning achter?, hoe regelt u de omgang met de kinderen?, hoeveel alimentatie wordt er betaald?
