Inequality and Rights: Contemporary Challenges in the Child Protection & Family Justice Systems before and during the Pandemic: A Symposium

Hear from our panel of experts: Sir James Munby, ATD4thWorld / PFAN,  Prof Brid Featherstone (University of Huddersfield),  Prof. Ravinder Barn, Prof. Anna Gupta and Robert Jago, School of Law and Social Sciences, Royal Holloway.

This year on World Social Work Day we ask you to join us to reflect on the important concerns facing children and families and professions who work with them in these challenging times. The COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated existing social and economic inequalities facing marginalised groups. The rights of individuals, and groups in such a context present a keen challenge for professionals working in the child protection and family justice systems. This symposium, organised jointly by the Departments of Law and Criminology, & Social Work, brings together important debates to discuss key issues of concern. Located within a framework of human rights and social justice, the symposium seeks to contribute to scholarly, and policy and practice understandings.
