Educazione di genere e sostegno alla genitorialità. Una rete per le famiglie in tras-formazione

Abstract

The essay presents initial findings from an action-participatory research project that resulted from collaboration between the FORLILPSI Department of the University of Florence and the Early Childhood Education Services of the Municipality of Livorno. Starting with an analysis of the changes affecting contemporary society and families, this research aimed to identify the resources and actions that have been promoted in the Livorno area over the last five years for gender and parenting education. The ultimate goal is to design and build an inter-institutional and inter-professional network that supports intra- and inter-family relations through an inclusive and transformative approach. The paper presents the theoretical foundations, objectives, methodology, and initial results of the project. It also presents the hypothesis of the steps to be taken to establish and operationalize the network.
