Knowledge and skill acquisition:
During this training school, I gained valuable insights into the quality assurance protocols for family support services in Europe, explored the social impact of applied research at both national and European levels, and learned about the development of policy briefs and European guidelines. Engaging in group discussions and individual consultations, I deepened my understanding of quality family support practices. I also participated in sessions on consensus methods in family support research, and the use of alternative languages to generate social impact. Presenting my own research plans allowed me to receive constructive feedback and learn from peers, enhancing my ability to create meaningful social impact through my work.
