Cinematherapy by EKKOMED: Working with Children and Young People

CIFEJ presents the 4th webinar of the CIFEJ Global Educational Webinar Series 2026, an international platform dedicated to sharing good practices in film education, film production, media literacy, and creative learning.

In this session, Denise Nikolakou, Head of Cinematherapy at EKKOMED, explores the emotional dimension of the cinematic experience and the ways cinema can become a meaningful space for emotional expression, self-awareness, and connection. Focusing on the experiences of children and young people, the webinar considers how films can open up opportunities to recognise and explore feelings, reflect on personal experiences, and better understand themselves and others. By looking beyond the screen, the session highlights the potential of cinema to encourage empathy, emotional communication, and meaningful dialogue, offering new perspectives on how film can support emotional literacy and personal growth.

Join us for this insightful discussion, live on ZOOM, Friday 30 October 2026, 15:00 EET.
