SUMMARY:From Poverty to Prosperity National Child Poverty Conference - Everyone's Business
DESCRIPTION:“We are clear that we must now transition into a new phase in our fight against poverty in Wales… A new approach is needed which deals with the root causes of poverty … giving children the best start in life.  Investing in our children is an investment for the longer term…”   Carl Sargeant AM & Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children (14 Feb 2017)  \nThe reasons families experience poverty are multiple and poverty can impact on children’s lives in multiple ways. Indeed\, growing up in poverty can affect every area of a child’s life; their educational achievement\, health and their social inclusion. Children who grow up in poverty are more likely to become the parents of the next generation of children living in poverty. Whilst it is recognised that work is the best route out of poverty\, 60% of children in poverty in Wales live in a family where at least one person works.  The conference will consider the different issues\, challenges and solutions to tackling child poverty in Wales\, including the Welsh Government’s plans\, post-Communities First\, on building Resilient Communities focused on employment\, early years and empowerment. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConfirmed Speakers: \n\nCarl Sargeant\, AM & Cabinet Secretary for Communities and Children\, Welsh Government\nHelen Barnard – Child Poverty lead spokesperson\, Joseph Rowntree Foundation\nProfessor Sally Holland – Children’s Commissioner for Wales\nProfessor David Egan – Cardiff School of Education\, Cardiff Metropolitan University & former chair of the Tackling Poverty External Advisory Group\n\nNew Speakers: \n\nProfessor Jonathan Scourfield\, CASCADE- Cardiff University\nSarah Crawley\, Director Barnardo’s Cymru\nSue Mably\, Public Health Wales\nPhil Diamond\, Theme Lead for Health & Social Care Transformation Team at Torfaen CBC\nRepresentative from Local Government\n\nAims of the conference:  \n\nReview the achievements and challenges of the Welsh Government’s Child Poverty Strategy\nConsider ‘what works’ in child and family poverty that can inform new programmes\nOpportunities for participants to discuss and debate issues in child poverty in Wales\nTo share best practice and learn from others on effective ways to tackle the impact of child poverty and improve outcomes for children and young people\nTo develop a cohesive voice on the future of tackling child poverty in Wales\n\nAs well as Keynote Speakers\, we will have a panel of experts from Health\, Local Government and Third Sector\, to share their ideas on tackling Child Poverty\, followed by a Q&A session. \nWorkshops will include: \n\nBuilding resilient partnerships to benefit children living in poverty – National Museums Wales and ACE (Action in Caerau & Ely) Communities First\n\n\nAdverse Childhood Experiences – a strengths based approach – Action for Children\n\n\nUniversal Credit in Wales – working with families – Citizen’s Advice Cymru\n\n\nGrowing Wales Together – supporting young people from poverty to prosperity – Princes Trust Cymru\n\n\nChild poverty and mental health – The Children’s Society\n\n\nUsing Restorative Engagement to look behind the issues – Tros Gynnal Plant\n\n\nYoung Wales Workshop – Young people’s perspectives on child poverty – Caerphilly Youth Forum\n\n\nWitnessing the impact of poverty on the emotional wellbeing of young people – University of Wales Trinity St David\n\n\nChildren’s Zones – Children & Families Division\, Welsh Government\n\n\nThe role of Family Point & MEIC helpline in tackling child poverty – Promo Cymru\n\nWho should attend? \n\nChild and families practitioners from all sectors\nPolicy and strategic leads from all sectors\nManagers and practitioners from anti-poverty national programmes including Flying Start\, Families First and Communities First\nLocal Government policy leads\, managers and service deliverers\nThird sector and community organisation representatives\nHealth and Social Care professionals\nSchools and Education professionals\nPublic Service Board leads\nHousing professionals\nElected Council Members\nOfficers in relevant Welsh Government and National Assembly for Wales departments\nPublic bodies\nYouth service leaders and managers\nAll professionals with a commitment to improving the wellbeing outcomes of children and families in poverty\n\nExhibition opportunities will also be available at the conference on a first come first served basis.
