What is ICDP?

ICDP (International Child Development Program) is a program that helps establish, correct, or improve parent-child contact.
It was created in 1985 by an international group of psychologists from Norway, Sweden, and the UK, led by psychologist Carsten Hundeide.
Today it is used in 44 countries on all continents, and approved by WHO and UNICEF.
The program's effectiveness is checked annually using standard psychological tests conducted by the facilitators during the program (at least before and after).
All facilitators are trained and certified, and work under the supervision of an accredited organization.

ICDP Online:

  • Practices individual approach - every parent will address their specific needs during the program

  • Facilitates ICDP's flexibility that allows adjusting the program for different situations.

  • Is created for the online format - tasks, lectures, and exercises are made with the understanding of the online specificity. 

  • Adjusted for immigrants' needs - addresses problems of cultural adaptation, relocation-related stress, and other issues. 

  • Uses the trauma-informed approach that helps parents to indicate and localize traumatic experiences and prevent trauma's impact on parenting processes.
