Conversation Series: Witnessing, Surviving, Participating: Narratives of Rural Children and Young People Concerning Wildfires in Portugal

“Being a Child in the Era of Crises: Rethinking the Well-being of Children in Türkiye After the Pandemic” project, we held the third meeting of our talk series on Thursday, March 28, 2024.
