A Fragmented System? Resources from the one day conference

Last updated: Wed 06, 2017

On 26th April 2017 the Alexi Project and International Centre hosted a one-day conference aiming to explore the gap between policy and practice in relation to young people's participation and CSE. 

Fourteen presenters contributed their experience and perspective including practitioners, young people, policy-leads, researchers and funders. You can listen to audi-recordings of the speakers below and slides are also available below for some presentations. 

An event report captures the key themes and issues arising throughout the day, as well ideas generated by attendees about how to 'close the gap'.
