Aims of SIG
The general aim of the SIG is to provide a forum to bring together international scholars, policy makers, research students, managers, and practitioners interested in issues related to children’s rights in practice across various organizations (public and non-governmental) to examine these challenges and produce research led solutions. The SIG’s scope will focus on and critically examine policy, practice, and theoretical developments within the field of children’s rights in social work. Specifically, this includes all aspects related to children’s rights within social work practice, i.e., child welfare, work with families, social services, juvenile justice, education, health, policy making, pedagogy and the law.
Objectives of SIG
- Give members an opportunity to connect, collaborate and develop their research capacity and knowledge base in all aspects of children’s rights in social work.
- Explore ideas, and collectively contribute to promoting the rights of children across Europe and beyond.
- Facilitate collaboration in presentations, publications, and teaching materials.
