The Centre for Excellence in Child and Family Welfare invites you to the OPEN Symposium 2021. The three-day online event will run from 26-28 October.
Over the past year of the global pandemic, services that work with children and families have had to reconfigure and reimagine the way they work, deliver services, implement programs, and engage with clients and communities. This has led to new ways of working and thinking about what matters.
This year’s OPEN Symposium will explore these ideas and innovations that are occurring across the Victorian child and family sector and other allied sectors.
