Meet the Editors: Transforming Care book series

Friday 25 12.45-1.45 pm

Care and care work have been thrust into the international spotlight, particularly since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. This has revealed an increased need for empirical, theoretical and methodological investigation into social care and care policy and practice.

Addressing social care and care policy and practice at an international level, the new Transforming Care book series provides a crucial platform for scholars researching early childhood care, care for adults with disabilities and long-term care for frail older people.

Join the Series Editors, Costanzo Ranci and Tine Rostgaard, to find out more about their new Transforming Care book series and to hear out about the publishing process at Policy Press. Bring your questions.

Round table: “Care at stake: post-pandemic research and policy”

How has the Covid-19 pandemic affected, reoriented, transformed or consolidated the care policy agendas? What are the (new) research questions and challenges emerging in the post-pandemic time? How are governments and stakeholders (re)reconsidering care policies? Are there differences and similarities across countries and across care domains?
