Participant details Name and surname: Pablo Carrera Home institution: Universidad Isabel I Location of the Training School: Faro, Portugal Dates for the Training School: Thursday, July 4, 2024 to Friday, July 5, 2024 Training School Title: Family support and research for social impact Research interests: Parenting interventions – Implementation science TS details Knowledge and skill acquisition: I have learned a great deal on translational science in family support, particularly in how to make research useful by engaging with practitioners, families, and policymakers to support the inclusion of evidence-based practices in family support and intervention. I have learned as well about many factors that are relevant for assessing the quality of family support at the level of policies and practitioners, factors that I was not aware because they are less in the research field.I also learned about the value of incorporating diverse voices in the process, including families, children, and practitioners. I also liked the complex and multifaceted view on evidence that the speakers translated, not only based on research evidence on efficacy, but also on effectiveness in real-world conditions and other areas.I will try to incorporate these approaches to family support when working in research projects involving the implementation of evidence-based approaches in family support and parenting interventions, being humble about the role of research evidence in the overall complex picture of quality family support and counting with the voice of practitioners and families. Outputs: In the training school I presented a brief oral presentation following the prompt “What I have done or am planning to do to generate social impact with my research”. In this brief oral presentation I outlined two key ideas for a future research project assessing the feasibility and perceived need for an evidence-based relational intervention for the foster care field in Andalusia: participatory research and pragmatic measures. Future collaborations: I will continue to collaborate with the Eurofam network and I will contact Sofia Baena, the leader of the Eurofam Young Researchers network
