The Well-being of Children in the Educational System from Bihor County. A Qualitative Approach

Abstract

The study positions of children as social and moral actors who can tell about their understanding and experiences of well-being. In this sense, we try to capture variations in children's welfare experiences and to show how researchers can conceptualize and build on children's narrative perspectives in order to achieve a better understanding of the signification they attribute to well-being. During the four focus group meetings of the Children's Understanding of Well-Being-Global and Local Contexts project, we investigated the dimensions of well-being with students in the lower secondary public system (Gymnasium). By making such qualitative approaches, we hope to contribute to the information and further development of useful policies and practices for investigating and monitoring child welfare beyond the cultural and social context in which they live.
