Her open words make you sit up and take notice: Queen Silvia is committed to her heart projects and puts them in the public eye.
Dubai – Social commitment is of great importance in the life of Queen Silvia (78). For years, the Swedish regent has been committed to causes that are important to her. Supporting children and young people is particularly important to her.
A few days ago, Queen Silvia once again made it clear how important it is to support the younger generation at an early stage. As part of the “Health and Expo” theme week at Expo 2020, which her husband King Carl Gustaf (75) has already visited in Dubai, the mother of three addressed the audience in a video speech from Sweden. Silvia’s organization Mentor International, which offers mentoring programs for young people, held a seminar on mental illness in children and young people.
24royal.de* reveals why Queen Silvia is a role model for her family.
As the royal guest of honour, Queen Silvia emphasized the need for child and youth welfare: “Mental illnesses in children and adolescents are a global problem that affects us all. […] During this Mental Health Week we will teach the importance of early intervention to help children and young people have better health and a good start in life. Young people today benefit from preventive and health-promoting measures – and society as a whole will benefit in the future. I hope that this Mental Health Week will be an incubator for change.” *24royal.de is an offer from IPPEN.MEDIA
