SUPPORTING EMOTIONALLY AND PSYCHOLOGICALLY THE REFUGEE CHILDREN IN GREEK PRIMARY SCHOOL
As Greece is a big draw for refugees the latest years, it is called to deal with a massive wave of refugees, which has never known before. The new reality, which comes from the enormous population transfer, demands school adjustment as well as the creation of new educational intervention from school teachers, so that the little refugees can be psychologically supported in order to cope with the new challenges and difficulties they have to face. The intercultural education promotes respect towards other nation’s cultures by approaching any cultural difference equally and positively. School teachers play such an important role for an efficient educational support offering intercultural communication, emotional safety, and psychological support to little refugees, so that they won’t, by no means, be cut off from the community.
