Policy and Practice Group

We are delighted to introduce EurofamNet’s Policy and Practice Group.

The EurofamNet Foundation Document highlights the importance of strong connections between research, policy, and practice. This group has been established to strengthen those links by bringing together colleagues from across Europe who are working in family support policy and/or practice.

The group is chaired by Johanna Schima from Make Mothers Matter, who has been involved in the network since its inception and is highly committed to advancing our shared goal of improving the wellbeing of families.

It is proposed that the group will meet every six months. Meetings will generally take place online, with opportunities to meet in person as part of the wider EurofamNet network meetings.

If you are involved in family support policy or practice, we would be very pleased to welcome you to these conversations.

To express your interest or for further information, please contact us at:  eurofamnet@gmail.com
