“Europe Matters to Wales” - Tackling poverty and social exclusion
2016-03-17 | Cardiff City Stadium, Cardiff City Stadium
This free event will look at ways in which European policy and funding might be used alongside Welsh policy and public investments to help tackle poverty and social exclusion as an over-arching Welsh Government priority, making a positive impact on people’s lives.
The Welsh economy and labour market has benefited from billions of pounds of European Structural Funds investment, and the 2014-2020 programmes for Wales present significant investment opportunities to tackle poverty through sustainable employment. In addition to these investments, the Minister for Finance and Government Business, Jane Hutt AM, appointed three European Funding Ambassadors to increase awareness of and maximise the opportunities of the EU funding streams directly managed by the European Commission. In response to a recommendation of the interim report of the European Funding Ambassadors, this event will take stock of the all Wales anti-poverty strategy and the synergies between and opportunities of EU and Welsh public funding which can help make a positive difference to people’s lives.
The purpose of this event is to: • bring together key stakeholders to raise awareness of current policy and funding practice within Wales, placing it in the wider UK and EU context; and• to provide information about EU funding opportunities that could further support Welsh action to tackle poverty and social exclusion.

Wellbeing of Future Generations Act: Looking Forward
2016-03-17 09:00 - 13:00 | Cardiff, Cardiff
Shared learning from the Welsh Local Government Association, Monmouthshire Council and the Wales Audit Office
About the seminar
This seminar draws on the key learning drawn from local government preparation for the Well-being of Future Generations Act that will be of interest across all public services in Wales. The Wales Audit Office has been actively engaged with the WLGA to enhance an understanding of the role of audit in the implementation of the WFG Act. As part of this engagement with the WLGA, the Wales Audit Office undertook a review of Monmouthshire County Council’s preparedness for the Wellbeing of Future Generations Act.
The Wales Audit Office recognises that the WFG Act will be challenging for both public bodies and public audit. In the seminar the WLGA will take the opportunity to share key learning with the wider public sector. The WAO and MCC will use their experience to explore how public bodies can prepare for the challenges that the WFG Act will present, as well as seize the opportunities it offers. We will also begin a conversation about how public audit may need to do business differently.
Delegates will also have the opportunity to share their own experience and contribute to a discussion on the future shape of audit. Walking away from this seminar, delegates will have a better understanding of how public bodies are preparing themselves for the WFG Act.
Who the seminar is for
All public bodies affected by the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act.
This seminar is aimed at senior managers and practitioners responsible for:

Policy and performance
Corporate planning
Risk Management
Workforce planning
Financial Management
Procurement
Asset Management
Internal Audit
Public Service Boards

Supporting Parents to Protect Children Online
2016-03-23 | Cardiff, Cardiff
This one-day Children in Wales course aims to deliver a balanced, non-sensationalist approach to help professionals inform and support parents in protecting children when using the internet. The course is aimed at a wide variety of practitioners working with children and families including those working for Families First, Communities First, Flying Start and foster carers.
Many parents today feel unable to protect their children online. They feel powerless when faced with a technology they do not fully understand while their children seem completely at home with hi- tech, web enabled gadgets. How can people working with families help parents to better protect their children?
With a constant flow of stories about online abuse in the media some parents may overreact restricting access to everything, while others just feel overwhelmed, keep their fingers crossed and hope it won’t happen to their child. Is there a safe way for children to use the internet’s opportunities for learning and fun, while also avoiding the risks? How can we help parents support their children’s safe use of modern technology?
The course will look at some of the real risks and dangers and debate the concerns, while also dispelling some of the myths and hoaxes. There will be an opportunity for practitioners to discuss issues that parents are raising and to have some hands on experience at creating safe settings on some of the most popular devices used by children.
The course will explore:

Real violence and online violence
Talking to children about porn
Possible addiction to online activities
Social media, grooming and sexting
Spotting warning signs of online abuse
Grooming and radicalisation
Censorship and identifying age appropriate materials
Parental controls and how to set them
