Preparing Future Social Workers for Data-Driven Practice: A Panel Discussion with Universities in Moldova and the USA
Information about the webinar:
Join Data for Impact (D4I) on May 31 at 8–9:00am EDT (15:00–16:00 EET) for a webinar on preparing future social workers for data-driven practice. This webinar will be presented in English and Romanian, with simultaneous interpretation.
In Moldova, USAID’s D4I project works with the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection, the National Social Assistance Agency, and the Territorial Social Assistance Structures to strengthen their use of data for decision making on behalf of children and families in need. Through a collaboration between these institutions and local universities, D4I has helped facilitate adaptation of curriculum content and instruction to the needs of the Moldovan social assistance sector—and in line with global best practices. Join us virtually to hear from some of the faculty involved in this collaboration and from the wider project consortium, as they share their experience in preparing future social workers for data-driven practice.
