This meeting will follow-up on the 2019 by focusing on another of the Sustainable Development Goals, reviewing practices and policies that can contribute towards the goals both within Europe and beyond.

The 27th edition of ESN’s flagship conference will focus on quality. High-level speakers and interactive workshops will explore assessment and evaluation procedures, evidence-based services, and the transition to person-led care.

Participants in the second meeting of the working group will focus on how different sectors can coordinate to provide more integrated support for young people, specifically young care leavers.

The working group will examine the potential of new technology and digitalisation, with the first meeting concentrating on gathering data and how this can be analysed to inform decision-making.

The 2019 ESN seminar will bring together service users and service managers for discussions on effective methods to make service users key contributors in the design, delivery, and evaluation of social services.
