Why?

Sandra has always been fascinated and inspired by human interaction. She has been an international pedagogue for over 20 years. Her basic attitude towards life is optimistic. She uses her professional observation skills to make people aware of the invisible and the visible effects of their actions and she coaches people into improving the quality of their interactions in general, and in connection to children in particular. 

The other side of the medal

Being a pedagogue and observer, Sandra is often confronted with the dark side of human actions, e.g. child (sexual) abuse. 'Once you have seen, you cannot unsee.' Once you know, you can't not know. Sandra realised that she should also focus on the (B)right Side of Life, in order to do as much as possible for Children's Rights from a healthy point of view. That's what 'The Other Side of the Medal' stands for. Her project Kid for ChildRights aims to bring more awareness to child (sexual) abuse and the consequences, how to prevent it, and how to  end it. And that is why Sanny's work is so colorful and bright!
