Dom Campbell of FutureGov has blogged about the start of a new project around how the web can help improve and innovate in children’s services.
This project will kick off with a get together of interested folk:
To start off with, we are looking to bring together multi-disciplinary senior manager and practitioners, from childrens social services, to teachers, police and health workers, with social web technologist, public service designer, funders – or even just people who have a personal passion for this area – to help us design and run a small Safeguarding 2.0 pilot. Nothing big in the first instance, more a proof of concept if you like, but with the potential to transform the way in which professionals and non-professionals alike might better share information and form the kinds of relationships that might prevent future tragedies.
This seems a great project, and if you’re interested in this area, I would strongly recommend attending the round table event. More details embedded below:
