Description

The Professional Association of Lecturers in Youth and Community Work is funding a series of free national, collaborative 'Policy and Practice' seminars around the UK. The aim of these seminars is to foster greater levels of collaboration between higher education institutions and practice agencies in the profiling of challenges and opportunities facing youth and community work policy and practice across the UK.

This Seminar Title: 'Developing a Charter for Post-Brexit Youth and Community Work'

Hosted by the University of Glasgow, and co-designed with the University of the West of Scotland, this event will include representation from the Prince's Trust, Youthlink Scotland and other practice agencies engaged in community-based youth work. The seminar will be repeated at the Dumfries Campus of the University of West of Scotland on Thursday 26th May, 2018 (follow this link if you wish to book in to the Dumfries seminar).

This Seminar Brief:

The purpose of these seminars is to act as a first stage in the development of a new and visionary post-Brexit Charter of demands for a 21st century Youth and Community Work service. The seminars will not attempt to speculate on the impact of Brexit but rather to use Brexit as an opportunity to draw up demands for changes in policy and funding to enable practitioners to increase and improve the service they offer. This is an opportunity for practitioners and researchers, based on the collective evidence we have, to consider what we would like to see for Youth and Community Work, rather than waiting and accepting outcomes decided by governments. We will be taking a pro-active rather than defensive approach and have identified some themes for the seminar to address but are also flexible to embrace other ideas on the day. Themes will include: funding models and resources for Youth and Community Work; community activism; inter-professional practice; core provision. After the seminars, the draft Charter will be circulated around the UK for consultation. Once that consultation is complete there will be a formal launch in each of the four nations to demonstrate our united approach.

Who should participate?

We invite participation from practitioners, academics, researchers, agencies, policy-makers and activists from across the UK who share a concern for the wellbeing of young people and communities. The seminar will include opportunities for participation and networking with a view to extending partnerships between academia and practice agencies.
