ICDP Program

International Child Development  Program (ICDP) er et enkelt, helsefremmende og forebyggende program som har som mål å styrke omsorgen og oppveksten for barn og unge. Det retter seg mot omsorgsgivere og skal styrke deres omsorgskompetanse. ICDP-programmet ble utviklet av professor Karsten Hundeide og professor Henning Rye ved Universitetet i Oslo. ICDP-programmet er anerkjent og benyttet av bl.a. UNICEF og WHO.

Nyere forskning viser at barnets samspill med sine nærmeste omsorgsgivere er avgjørende for barnets helhetlige utvikling. ICDP har som sin grunntanke at den beste måten å hjelpe et barn på, er å hjelpe barnets omsorgsperson(er), og at den mest virkningsfulle strategien er å støtte og bevisstgjøre barnets stabile omsorgsnettverk. ICDP setter eksisterende forskning om barn og barns utvikling i system. Programmet har de 3 dialoger og 8 tema for godt samspill, som enkle hjelpemidler for å bevisstgjøre omsorgspersoner på viktigheten av godt samspill med sitt barn for å sikre barnet en sunn følelsesmessig og mental utvikling.

Shincon’s kontor i Kunming, Kina står for etableringen av programmet i Kina.



International Child Development Programme (ICDP) in China operates under Shincon Kunming Rep Office, and was first introduce to China in 2015 as part of a development project for Left-behind Children, but has since been spread to several other governmental and non-governmental entities.

ICDP is a competence-building agency. ICDP works for the benefit of children, youth and families worldwide towards a more peaceful and violence free society. The ethos of ICDP is to provide for human care by activating empathy and by building caregivers’ competence.

The core of the ICDP work is the ICDP Program. This is a program of human care directed towards children’s caregivers. The idea is that long-term effects can only be achieved and sustained through supporting children’s permanent network of care, which are primarily parents or staff in institutions where children stay.  ICDP aims to implement recent knowledge from scientific research in child development for the benefit of vulnerable and neglected children. The program is scientifically based in the sense that the basic components of the program are strongly supported by research in modern developmental psychology. 

The general strategy is to convey competence and expertise to individuals, organizations, universities, educational institutions and networks of care, so that the impact of the trainings can be spread wider, reaching more disadvantaged children and families, and can be sustained longer, than individual or institutionally oriented interventions towards a limited number of disadvantaged caregivers and children.
