In her speech, Queen Silvia said: “It is deeply encouraging to see how the Barnahus model has spread and become a proven European approach. Each country must find its own path and its own way of organising this work, but the core principle remains the same: placing the child at the centre and ensuring that all necessary actors work together in a child-friendly environment. Because in the end, children’s needs are universal. They need to be seen, to be heard, and to be believed.”
