This conference has been designed to give community workers the opportunity to hear from leading experts in social innovation/enterprise and social justice. Given the government’s growing interest in the comercilisation of social services we feel it is timely to offer social workers the opportunity to hear from some of New Zealand’s top social entrepreneurs as well as learn the skills behind social enterprise. We will also hear from innovative social workers and learn how to develop an innovative mindset to deliver best practice. This conference will also have a focus on social justice. Key note speakers will share how they have created change in communities and policy. Workshops will focus on developing kills in advocacy, particularly advocacy and effective ways to gain support for your organization. This is a rare opportunity to hear from so many experienced people in one setting. Check out our speakers through the links below.
