What works in Relationship Education?
Lessons from Academics and Service Deliverers in the United States and Europe
Acknowledgements
“What Works in Relationship Education? Lessons from Academics and Service Deliverers in the United States and Europe” was a two day colloquium held in London in September 2008, funded and organised by the Implementation and Social Outreach Division of the Doha International Institute for Family Studies and Development (FSD) and Care For the Family. The Institute would like to expresses its gratitude to Her Highness, Sheikha Mozah Bint Nasser Al- Missned, Consort of His Highness the Emir of Qatar and President of Qatar Foundation, for her courageous vision (and continuing support of) the natural family. The Institute also wishes to thank the principal organizers – Dato’ Fatimah Saad, FSD Division Director, and Dr. Samantha Callan, Care for the Family – who worked hundreds of hours organising this important event. It is our profound hope that both the event and the papers published in this book will result in the development of ever-more effective materials to assist husbands and wives and their children to remain together in positive and productive family relationships.
