From I to We: Together Against Loneliness

When children and adolescents feel lonely, they need understanding, safe encounters, and real pathways into community. The presentation From I to We at the Wissenswerkstadt Bielefeld is aimed at parents, educational professionals, and anyone interested in attentively supporting young people.

Recognizing Loneliness Early

The focus is on the causes and consequences of loneliness in childhood and adolescence. Participants will learn what warning signs can become visible in the family environment, at school, and in leisure activities. The evening provides an important learning experience: Loneliness is not a personal failure but affects families, educational institutions, medical fields, and society as a whole.

Age-Appropriate Impulses for More Community

The presentation showcases concrete approaches for how children and adolescents can build social relationships and experience community. Using the example of the project Growing Together. Acting Together, possibilities are presented to support young people in a child-friendly, appreciative, and development-oriented way. This involves listening, belonging, courage for encounters, and enhancing social skills.

A Resource for Parents and Professionals

The event is suitable for adults and adolescents aged 14 and older. No prior knowledge is required. Parents receive professional guidance for conversations and everyday situations, while educational professionals take away suggestions for school, youth services, and leisure activities. The Wissenswerkstadt creates a safe space for exchange, new perspectives, and joint reflection.

Family Experience with Societal Value

The evening combines professional knowledge with a humanly important topic. Laughter of children, shared time, and learning fun occur where young people feel seen and accepted. The offering takes place as part of the GENIALE Day against Loneliness and was developed by the Liz Mohn Foundation.

Conclusion

Visitors can expect an informative presentation with comprehensible impulses, practical ideas, and a clear focus on the development of social relationships. Those who want to accompany children and adolescents safely, age-appropriately, and attentively will experience a valuable evening for more togetherness in the Wissenswerkstadt Bielefeld.
