WorldForum 2010, A World Fit for Children: Advancing the Global Movement

International delegates and child welfare experts will gather at the IBM Learning Center in Palisades, New York this November 8 to 11 for WorldForum 2010, the 21st annual summit of the International Forum for Child Welfare (IFCW). This year’s theme, A World Fit for Children: Advancing the Global Movement, sets the stage for 500 delegates from 40 nations to take stock of current successes and obstacles; to share cutting edge research, innovative solutions, and best practices; and to plan for future action. A parallel forum for young people will focus on the participation of youth in the welfare process. Alongside the IFCW, co-hosts for the summit will be The Committee for Hispanic Children and Families (CHCF), Mentoring USA and Mentoring USA/Italia.
