Societies across the globe are experiencing rapid changes which affect children, their families and the practitioners working alongside them. Living as we do in a more interconnected and interdependent world, the stability of our economies and societies are impacted by factors beyond our borders; the effects of conflict, climate change and epidemics in once remote countries can now have repercussions in local communities. The ISSA Conference 2016 will unite the knowledge and practice of researchers, practitioners, policy makers, parents and NGOs from around the world to explore these themes through insightful discussions and interactive sessions, while sharing their insights and solutions.
