This section gathers the website contents concerning the health of children– understood as a general condition of physical, psychological and social well-being – and hence not only related to the presence of diseases or specific health issues.
It includes topics concerning the environmental factors that can affect such condition, the prevention activities, the disability of children and the relevant supporting actions in the family and school settings. Contents relating to the psychological support of children in difficult and emergency situations can also be found in this section.
You can also search for contents concerning the broader topic of mother-child health and sexuality.
