About

The mental health and psychosocial wellbeing of young children are directly tied to the physical, psychological and social capacity of their caregivers and families. In Bhutan, UNICEF supports the Ministry of Education to implement a National Parenting Education programme and contextualize and pilot the Caring for the Caregiver package, helping caregivers to build their confidence and strengthen the skills needed to support their child's development and wellbeing.
