The social worker students contributed with reflections on both theoretical and practical dimensions of social work and discussed meaningful and creative solutions to different challenges!  

Initiator and postdoc at SHAPE – Shaping Digital Citizenship, Michael Christensen, shares his thoughts upon the workshop:  

»It was a very successful, inspiring and productive day. The students and future social workers shared insights and thoughts on data work in both their profession and educational training at VIA. The room was filled with good energy, and everyone contributed to make the workshop a success! The next step is to process the impressions and experiences, which will also be included in the empirical data.« 

SHAPE would like to express our sincere thanks to the students for the important and interesting insights and perspectives doing the afternoon
