With the testimonies of teenagers and experts, the foundation still has the same purpose: to bring about new awareness and knowledge, but also to encourage initiatives and new behaviors.
The foundation is launching this 6th national Adolescences forum with its usual partners, the Ministry of National Education, and in particular the General Directorate of School Education (DGESCO), Inserm, the SNCF Solidarity Foundation, and for the first time: France 5 thanks to Curiosphère.tv.
This 6th national forum will take place on February 3, 2010, it will bring together high school students and recognized experts in order to better understand the differences:
-How are they experienced and felt by adolescents?
-Are the differences biological or acquired?
-What consequences can they have on assertiveness and respect for others?
-How to live with these differences?
It will be punctuated by three round tables:
– “Girls, boys: similar or different?”
– “Build yourself with these differences.”
– “Boys, girls: free to be yourself?”
