06 Jun March 2016 – Hestia meeting with the Steering Committee
In March 2016, the Hestia team had a very fruitful meeting with the HESTIA Steering Committee. This Steering Committee is composed by representatives with a remarkable trajectory in the academic field: Dr. Fred Wulczyn (Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago), Prof. Marit Skivenes (University of Bergen), Prof. Doris Buehler (University of Wuppertal) and Prof. Nick Frost (Leeds Beckett University). Their outstanding knowledge on international comparisons and child protection and their inspiring ideas resulted in new insights regarding the comparative study of the child protection policies in the three countries. Furthermore, they provided the Hestia team with important insights regarding the analysis of case files on reports of child maltreatment and the study design of the interviews with parents.
