Video Series: Positive Parenting with the VM Foundation

In 2020, the VM Foundation launched a monthly webinar series: Positive Parenting with VM Foundation. The series provided resources to promote, support and strengthen existing parenting abilities; promoted the development of new competencies within the positive parenting framework; and enhanced the development of children in light of the social problems existing in our country.

Since then, the video series has featured discussions on a number of topics with mothers, fathers, caregivers, psychologists and other relevant experts weighing in.

All episodes in the series can be viewed at the VM Group YouTube Channel.
