Talking Points
We invite you to contribute to the new interdiac series: ‘Talking Points’! This regular production aims to present the issues faced by professional social & diaconal workers, students and volunteers. Each edition will highlight and present one topic, which the writer will analyse. It is important to reflect on the implications for the field of work or for future learning and development.
At the same time, ‘Talking Points’ is an opportunity for writers to invite others to join a reflective journey which may lead to new developments and changes in social and diaconal work and personal lives.
Your contribution can be an article or essay on a topic, a report and reflection on practice or the result of a written assignment in a learning programme. The main thing is that all editions should be contextually rooted and relevant!
