The Sharing Stories Project: Promoting playful parenting through sharing digital books in the COVID-19 era
REFNo: SS517ES
Relying on in-person book-sharing models, we will adapt this project to be deliverable over WhatsApp, and engage parents through sending digital books, holding weekly webinars, and sending individualized messages to support parents’ mental health and wellbeing. We will partner with the Regional Psychosocial Support Initiative (REPSSI) and the Africa Early Childhood Network (AfECN) to deliver this digital intervention to parents with young children with the aim to promote parenting through play, parental sensitivity, responsiveness and mental health, and child social, emotional and cognitive development.
