Defining child maltreatment for research and surveillance

Join the ExChange team for this webinar where they will delve into the complexities of the topic of child maltreatment, a pressing public health issue with lifelong consequences. 

Based on a groundbreaking European Delphi study, published in the Lancet Regional Health - Europe, this webinar will explore efforts to achieve a unified definition of child maltreatment to enhance measurement and surveillance across Europe. 

The webinar will be led by Dr Laura Cowley. Dr Laura Cowley is a Research Officer and Data Scientist at Swansea University who is currently working on several projects related to child maltreatment and social care. One of them is a three-year Health and Care Research Wales-funded Social Care Fellowship, which will use administrative data to create predictive tools to assist practitioners in identifying which children in Wales require early intervention and support.
