Summary

The purpose of the conference is to bring together around 300 researchers from around the world to explore and discuss practice research within the conference theme ‘Participation, Co-creation and Service Users’ Positions’. The participation of practitioners, service users and researchers and the collaboration and co-creation between the different actors are the very DNA of practice research. As a part of a growing social policy agenda, the collaboration between researchers and social work practitioners is increasing, while the road to include service users in research is still challenged. The conference will among other issues seek to remedy the lacunae by including this perspective in the conference theme as well as in our choice of keynote speakers.
