Origin
2026 - First part-session
In the draft resolution, replace paragraph 6.2.2 with the following paragraph:

"bearing in mind that parents are those who are mainly responsible for the education and welfare of their children, introduce socio-emotional education to help parents promote students’ well-being, prevent mental health problems, increase social cohesion and provide support for students’ personal and societal development. The family thus becomes the foremost societal asset to prevent and recognise mental health issues, and is therefore a key partner of the school system."

Explanatory note

This amendment reflects the fundamental role of families as the primary educators and the first environment where children’s best interest and human development are nurtured.
