Abstract

This briefing paper illustrates CELCIS’ international work, and provides information about an exciting international collaboration, aimed at enhancing child welfare practice in Macedonia. The project provides an example of high-level collaboration as CELCIS worked with senior international consultants and the Government of Macedonia. Together the project team developed a framework for professional development that is rooted in the Macedonian context and informed by the highest standards of internationally-accepted social work practice. Drawing on previous experience, CELCIS staff developed an in-service curriculum aimed at all registered social service personnel in Macedonia.
