Conference organised on the occasion of the 10th anniversary of the application of the Parental Consensus Model in Dinant on 16 September 2022.
Innovative and creative good practices always precede changes in the law and, above all, changes in mentalities.
Today, within the psycho-judicial world, a need for appeasement and pacification is felt by the explosion of ADR, especially within the family courts where professionals can no longer be accomplices to the suffering of children who are victims of their parents' conflicts.
The door to adversarial proceedings must be closed and the door to interdisciplinarity must continue to be developed.
This day is an opportunity to reflect together between professionals working in situations of parental separation, and to improve our practices in the best interests of the child.
