Seminar: In and For Interagency Working

A group of researchers at InterMedia attended 25 - 27 April 2005 a research seminar at the Center for Activity Theory and Development Work Research, University of Helsinki. The seminar was a collaborative effort together with the Centre for Sociocultural and Activity Theory Research, University of Birmingham. Key contributers to the seminar were: Ritva Engeström, Anne Edwards, Harry Daniels, David Middleton, Srikant Sarangi. The mutual concern and focus of the seminar was how to study and develop inter-professional collaboration and responsive interagency in order to support families, children and young adults at social risk. Trond E. Hauge, Cecilie F. Jahreie, Hege-Rene Åsand Hansen and Thomas de Lange from InterMedia participated.
