Parenting in a Pandemic

Episode 20: The importance of cultural connection


Listen Later

We all have a history and draw our cultural heritage from our family of origin, and this is often a source of strength and connection in challenging times. This is a gift that we can pass on to our children for their own sense of identity and wellbeing. We can also model to our children how to be sensitive and celebrate and learn from cultural differences. Parenting and family psychology expert, Professor Matt Sanders, talks today with Aunty Chrissie Stewart, a respected Cherbourg Community elder and Manager of Community Health in the Cherbourg Health Service, about the importance of cultural connection for our personal wellbeing and for our multicultural society.To assist us in evaluating the helpfulness of the Parenting in a Pandemic podcast series, please visit https://pfsc.psychology.uq.edu.au/parentinginapandemic and follow the link to the research survey.
