Breakthrough ACTION Philippines, in partnership with the Ministry of Basic, Higher and Technical Education (MBHTE) and UNICEF, created an adaptation of the BIDA Kid print materials to better resonate with the Muslim communities in the Bangsamoro Autonomous Region of Muslim Mindanao (BARMM). In this version, characters were added to represent community influencers and key decision-makers in the family. However, the message of encouraging the whole community to keep practicing key COVID-19 preventive behaviors remains the same.

August 15, 2022/in Social Media, Video UNICEF India English Mental Health, Other health in COVID-19 context, Return to Work/School Parents and Caregivers of Children, School Administrators, Teachers/by Shane Harper

Being a parent is a daily challenge and faced with the realities of COVID 19, social distancing and self-quarantine, it may be a struggle. For parents, the best way to help their children is to firstly take care of themselves.

Self-care during these times is not selfish because it enables the caregivers to be there for their children as a stable, calm and soothing parent. This way, parents will also be able to better understand their children and help them feel reassured, relaxed and focused.
