Tomorrow’s World: What lies ahead for Social Work in Wales?
This one-day conference aims to bring together practitioners, managers, students and anyone working in social work, to focus upon ‘Tomorrow’s World: What lies ahead for Social Work in Wales’. What will social work look like in the next 10 years and what do we need to focus on to continue to meet the needs of individuals and our society?
From the mental health impact arising from climate change to the developments in Artificial Intelligence, through to changes in working practices resulting from societal shifts and advancements; this one-day conference aims to stimulate debate and develop tangible actions for change.
BASW Cymru invites you to be part of this change. To share your experiences, your vison and ideas for the future and together, we will develop a manifesto for change promoting social work as the profession at the heart of communities, facilitating social connections, social cohesion, supporting families and individuals.
