Involvement with VHT/VIG - I

Since I remember that I want to do something to help out others, I was looking and searching for different ways how to do it.
During this process I discreetly moved from the somewhat harmless fight (trying to build the world according to my inner “eyes”) to paying attention to the others’ “eyes”, trying to see as each of us sees and wishes it. It is only with this change of perspective that I feel that my fight has new achievements - although they are less exuberant - finding so many other worlds, respecting them and helping to build them. Meanwhile, my world was being renewed, opening paths to new projects and elaborating strategies to fulfil others that already existed.
Thereby it is within this ongoing and progressing personal and professional construction that my involvement in VHT/VIG and its fulfilment arise. So I’ll describe how my interest in this method arose and increased:

quem sou eu? Who am I?

Inicio oficial no mundo virtual daquele que é um projecto aliciante sobre o Método Video Hometraining (VHT) e Video Interaction Guidance (VIG), de origem Holandesa, que tenho vindo a investigar e a implementar em Portugal.
Aqui pretendo ir dando informações sobre este método de intervenção diádica e grupal, ao nível dos seus conteúdos, metodologias, implementação em Portugal e acontecimentos práticos e teórico-científicos que vão pautando a sua existência nacional e internacional.


This is the official beginning in the virtual world of an enticing project, the Method Video Hometraining (VHT) and Video Interaction Guidance (VIG).
VHT/VIG has its origins in the seventies in the Netherlands. In nineties I’d start to study it, then I’d continue by getting expertise in that intervention method, researching in Portuguese reality and implement in Portugal.
Here I intent to give information about this dyadic and group’s intervention method, at the level of his subjects, methodology, implementation in Portugal, and practical and scientific-theoretical events that are happening in its national and international existence.
