I work as the research director and principal investigator of the FITFUTURA project. In the research project, we delve into the core of child welfare and examine how feedback-informed treatment is suitable for supporting the basic task of child welfare and multidisciplinary cooperation.
My research has focused on the themes of special expertise in social work, practice research, evaluation and innovation in child welfare, adult social work and health social work. In recent years, publication activities have focused on systemic child protection, the effects of reforms to the Child Welfare Act, and the themes of disaster times and cross-border services.
