September 17-21, 2011
12th ISPCAN European Regional Conference on Child Abuse and Neglect, Tampere Hall, Tampere, Finland
" Challenging Social Responsibilities for Child Abuse and Neglect "

Child abuse and neglect are issues which challenge practitioners, decision makers and researchers as well as parents, children and communities: whose responsibility is it to react, respond and care and how should it be done? The Conference offers a multiprofessional and multidisciplinary forum for researchers, practitioners, activists and decision-makers – not forgetting children and young people themselves – to share views and experiences by arranging plenaries, workshops and informal social meeting places. The Nordic, European and global perspectives will support our joint efforts to promote the well-being and safety of children and their families globally.

New Web Site

ISPCAN is proud to present our new web site design. It is currently in its migration stage and you will notice some of the pages you will visit will still be in the old design. In these cases, if you just press the back button on your browser when you are finished, you will be brought back to the previous page with the new design and menus again. As time progresses, you'll notice more and more pages will be transferred to the new design until the site is once again one seamless website of the same design. If you have any questions or comments during this process, please contact our webmaster at web@ispcan.org.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
