"Why this boy is sleeping on the beach" he asks. The boy he is referring to is Aylan, 4 years old, refugee, that lies dead on shore. I felt scared to answer him, mainly because I did not want my son to feel the pain I feel every time I look at this picture.  I searched for a children book at the library, internet, amazon, bookstores and organisations that works with refugees but found nothing. I even started looking for other tools that could help me start this difficult conversation like movie, or boardgame but again felt short. The problem is that in a world that is rapidly changing rules and conflict arises the market lacks child-friendly tools for developing and maintaining children’s capacity of empathy,leadership,curiosity,belonging and teamwork, all essential skills for next generation changemakers.  Siting down with the child and talk about the difficult topic, we help the children put the facts in order so the child do not carry a false perception of the situation, the child feels safe, it feels respected and bonds deeper.  The above strategies supports directly six of the sustainable development goals.  The idea was to make a book to the 500.00 children in Norway between the age 3 to 9. A crowdfunding campaign at funde.no where 350 people pre-ordered the book in order to print the book. The next step was Reach For Change Norway that gave me the tools, the network and the time I needed to be ready to stand strong today as an social entrepreneur and winning the title Game Changer Leader 2017.  Mangfold Forlag is creating tools that reflects reality in a child friendly way and let children experience another perons perspective. The tools can be in any language and be used any country.  My connection with my son is so much deeper because of Mangfold Forlag I hope I can do the same for every pre-school and every family across the globe.  A question from one of the products, so you can feel the fast, effortless and short-term outcome of what I do.
