DOHA: The Ministry of Education and Higher Education (MoEHE), in collaboration with the Doha International Family Institute (DIFI), held the first meeting of the “Tansheeh” program for the 2024-2025 academic year.
The meeting, attended by over 300 participants, including school principals, social and psychological specialists, and partners, aimed to introduce the “Tansheeh” program. The program is designed to support adolescent well-being by implementing an intervention program that enhances protective factors, and combats risk factors affecting students’ behavior, habits, and intellectual orientations.
The program will commence with a pre-survey at the beginning of the academic year, followed by preventive and developmental programs. At the end of the academic year, a post-survey will be conducted to measure the effectiveness of the intervention programs on students.
In her opening remarks, Assistant Director of the Department of Schools and Students Affairs at the MoEHE Fatima Youssef Al Obaidli highlighted that the purpose of the meeting was to advance the implementation of the Tansheeh program, which is a result of joint efforts between the MoEHE and the DIFI, as part of the national framework for promoting good ethical values.
The program is an intervention initiative aimed at preventing behavioral deviations in middle and high school students by enhancing the integrated social development of children during these crucial developmental stages.
DIFI Executive Director Dr. Sharifa Noman Al Emadi presented an overview of the “Tansheeh” program and its objectives. She emphasized the family’s constructive role in education through developing communication skills and promoting positive role models.
Director of the Family Research and Policy Department at the DIFI Dr. Khalid Jamal Al Na’ama complemented the presentation by emphasizing the role of the family as the primary nucleus in shaping children’s personalities and their intellectual and behavioral orientations.
