Preparing the next generation to make this world a better place

With 4 nationalities and having lived in 8 countries on three continents, I consider myself to be a Citizen of the World. In all these places, and all the other numerous countries where I had the chance to work, I have identified the same flaws in the education system and in the way children are parented.
Children are still not taught the life skills and emotional skills that they need to navigate this ever-complex world. The education system is failing to teach our children how to deal with situations that weâve never been confronted to.
To make this world a better place, I believe that change has to be systemic, ie. if we want transformation, we need to change the whole system by helping both schools and families prepare children for this new world.
And obviously this needs to be backed by government policies and politicians that believe in this new vision.
This is why I founded the Happy Confident Company and the Happy Confident Movement, to help develop new programmes and products for children, schools and families that will better prepare them for this new world.
And the consequence of this will be a better world that is more equal, more compassionate and with much happier and confident human beings.
Nadim teaches parenting techniques that use mainly soft philosophies, while ensuring our children donât become entitled brats.

The Happy Confident Company
Kids donât come with a manual
Author of 7 books
Raising my three children reminds me every day that we need to stop operating out of fear and guilt as parents and as a society in general. Do we want our kids to be happy and confident or do we want to reproduce a cycle of fear and guilt for the next generations to come? How can our children understand the importance of things that seem so important to us but seem so mundane to them? And more importantly, why do we keep wanting them to be so good and even âperfectâ while the whole world is crumbling in this pandemic?!
