A look back at 2024 with Europe’s leading network for social services

In 2024, the European Social Network continued to strengthen its impact across Europe through collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to inclusive social services.

From the 32nd edition of the European Social Services Conference in Antwerp—our most attended yet—to the European Social Services Awards in Lisbon with over 35,000 votes cast, this year has been full of milestones. We also brought together partners in Bucharest for a key Seminar on child protection, reflecting our growing reach and influence.

As we move forward, we remain committed to supporting communities, empowering the social services workforce, and promoting accessible, community-based care for all.
