This exciting training opportunity  will delve into both the immigration, care and care leaving  contexts and systems for these children and  young  The day will focus on the social work practice issues, challenges and dilemmas from the ethical, legal & care planning perspectives and how these  impact  on unaccompanied asylum seeking and migrant children and young people. The day will examine social work theory and practice in such contentious areas as age determination, the interface between competing legal systems, what social workers can and cannot do in this work, rights and entitlements and will provide an opportunity to network with other practitioners interested in this work.
