Webinar – Paul Nixon – “A restorative and relational approach to working with family, culture and community”
Paul Nixon works as a consultant with government and non-government agencies and universities across Oceania, Europe and North America. During this one-hour webinar, Paul will use his passion for restorative practice and working with families to explore how restorative and relational practice incorporates family, culture and community into decision making, resolving conflicts and creating lasting social and relational change.
Combining theory, evidence, storytelling and practical tips and examples, this webinar will consider key concepts, principles, values and practice processes that move power and responsibility back to the family and community, building on cultural strengths and relationships. Paul’s concept ties in so perfectly with this years theme that this webinar is a must watch for all social workers and social care professionals whether you are working in adult’s or children’s services.
