European Social Work Conference 25 – 26 April 2024

Social Work Matters. On 25 and 26 April, the European Social Work Conference invited social workers, academics, and policy makers from around Europe for a unique opportunity to exchange knowledge and experience. There is so much to learn from each other and so much we can do even better when we work together. This was the perfect opportunity to do so!

Across Europe, social workers are confronted by societal challenges like climate change, migration, and digitalisation. Social work is essential in making sure no-one is left behind in these challenges. The European Social Work Conference shed light on these challenges and the ways in which social work makes a difference.
