Transition and Connections: The Effect of Living Internationally

AustCham Thailand’s Education subcommittee invites members and guest to join a webinar on “Transition and Connections: The Effect of Living Internationally”.

Whether your family has moved abroad for the first time, whether you are seasoned global nomads, or whether you have seen families come and go or are repatriating, understanding how these changes influence you and your children's responses is important to understand.

What you can expect:

This session aims to provide opportunities for families to explore the effect transition and change have on people as a result of living and working abroad.  Third Culture Kids, children raised outside their country of origin embody a unique set of skills and attributes that flourish when families are aware of how their children's experiences shape them.

The overall objective of the session is to review the perspectives of experts in this area to develop a deeper understanding of the factors influencing our children and how to better support them. 

The session will also provide a unique opportunity for parents to connect, and get to know each other’s experiences and perspectives through discussions, questions, and shared experiences.
