The Persona Doll approach provides an effective, stimulating and enjoyable way to combat discrimination, foster emotional literacy, raise self-esteem and empower children.

It involves telling stories using a ‘special’ Persona Doll. Through creating a lifelike persona for the doll, it becomes like another child, or friend to the children, with real life experiences.  Some stories will be happy, others about difficult events or problems (exclusion, unfairness, prejudice). The children help to solve the problems.
