SUMMARY:AIFS - Setting the scene for implementing Monitoring\, Evaluation and Learning (MEL)
DESCRIPTION:This is the final webinar in a 3-part series exploring approaches to collecting and using evidence in the context of Australian child and family services. \nMonitoring\, evaluation and learning (MEL) is a coordinated and purposeful approach to generate evidence about a program or service to understand what is working\, for whom and why. But moving from designing a MEL approach to embedding it in your everyday service delivery can be complex and requires careful planning. \nThis webinar introduces the concept of MEL and explores the processes\, systems and practices that support effective implementation. It draws on practice experience and implementation science to discuss a range of practical strategies for how to embed MEL in everyday service delivery. \nThis free webinar will give you: \n\ninsight into what effective MEL implementation involves and why it matters\npractical strategies to support MEL implementation within your organisation\npractical strategies that support learning and adaptation.\n\nFind out more and register

SUMMARY:La Trobe University - Infant and child-led therapeutic approaches following family violence
DESCRIPTION:The session will draw on the article The impact of using an infant and child-led therapeutic approach in providing in situ consultations and transferable learnings to key workers working with families identified as at risk: A retrospective Australian study by Wendy Bunston\, Maureen Long\, Margarita Frederico\, Samantha Ware and Ania O’Brien. Read the article here. \nIn this webinar\, the research team will present a case study illustrating the child-led therapeutic approach and reflect on the implications for practitioners and services working with families. The session will also consider how the model supports learning transfer to frontline workers and why child-centred\, relationship-based practice matters in everyday service contexts. \nCore practice message: You do not need to be a therapist to work therapeutically.\nFrontline workers can bring a powerful infant‑ and child‑led lens into everyday interactions by slowing down\, observing\, wondering\, and keeping the child’s perspective central—with or without a specialist present. \nAn infant‑ and child‑led approach complements (rather than replaces) safety\, case planning and statutory responsibilities. The approach: \n\nTreats infants and children as subjects with agency\, not just dependents.\nActively invites their presence into conversations—in the room and “in all participants’ minds”.\nUses behaviour\, play\, movement and emotion as communication.\nPositions children as powerful motivators for hope and change within families.\n\nFind out more and register

SUMMARY:The Lady Musgrave Trust 18th Annual Forum on Women and Homelessness
DESCRIPTION:Stronger Together or Smarter Apart – Collaboration\, Competition and the Choices that Shape Our Sector \n\n\n\n\nFor the first time\, the Forum will run as a full day working session\, creating space to bring the sector together for deeper conversation\, practical learning and shared problem-solving across the system.
