Description
The initiative “Cooperation of TULIPAN and Ostbytunet Centre for Treatment and Professional Development” is focused on cooperation in the field of prevention of psychiatric diseases in children, in-patient and out-patient care of them and care for their parents. The aim will be reached by visit of Czech team in Norway and visit of Norwegian team in the Czech Republic that should result in improved services provided to parents of psychiatrically ill children/adolescents and to them itself in Liberec region. The initiative shall be implemented from November 2022 to April 2023.
Summary of the results
The objective of the cooperation in the field of prevention of psychiatric diseases in children/youth was to find out how it works in Norway (providing services, communication with the parents and support provided to them), to gain information, experience and know-how which we can implement in conditions of the Czech Republic, in Liberec Region, where the situation with support to this target group is not at the required level. This objective was achieved. Through TULIPAN´s collaboration with Norwegian partner, this initiative strengthened bilateral relations, cooperation and improved mutual knowledge and understanding between the Czech Republic and Norway.
This initiative brought know-how to the Czech partner, and thus helped to improve services provided to parents of psychiatrically ill children/adolescents and to them itself, in the Liberec region. (Study trip to Norway took place).
