Shaping the future: connecting knowledge and evidence in child welfare practice is the title of the EUSARF Conference 2016 in Oviedo. Our main aim is to stimulate debates and discussions that could transfer sound research findings to practices in child welfare and improve the interventions in the future. Therefore, the design of the conference will try to facilitate participation and open debates, not just by speakers but also by all delegates.
