Gezin in Balans
Gezin in Balans is a program focused on strengthening families, with a particular emphasis on promoting healthy and balanced family dynamics. This initiative was a pilot project developed by the City of Antwerp/Gemma, with our active participation in its implementation. The program provides support to parents and children, especially mothers and daughters from the Afghan community, with the aim of improving communication, relationships, and overall family well-being. Through workshops, advisory sessions, and coaching, Gezin in Balans helps families in difficult situations better manage conflicts and create a stable and positive living environment. It focuses on empowering parents, promoting the well-being of children, and building mutual respect within the family.
We specifically guided Afghan mothers and daughters in navigating their cultural and familial challenges. All the tools, manuals, brochures, and flyers created during the project are now available for further distribution. These resources aim to continue supporting families by providing practical guidance to strengthen family relationships and ensure a more harmonious home environment. Gezin in Balans contributes to long-term family well-being and helps empower families to foster healthy relationships, both within their homes and in the broader community.
