International Networks and Collaborations
Members of the Centre are actively involved in a number of international networks and collaborations. The Centre also has formal relationships with a number of other international Centres around the world.
1. International Network on Prevention in Children's Services
As a part of an ESRC Initiative the University of Sheffield made formal links with five other international Universities. This international network was established after a two-day symposium in held in the USA. Its central objective is to share learning on prevention, act as a conduit for information on events and activities and to develop cross national research collaborations.
Two further International Symposiums were held in Australia (September 2005) and one in the UK (April 2006).
2. Ongoing Research Links
Members of the Centre have active research links with other Centres internationally. Currently, Allison James and Adrian James have Professor 2 appointments at the Norwegian Centre for Childhood Research (NOSEB) in Trondheim where they are involved in two major research projects. The Centre has recently established links with the Centre for Childhood and Adolescence in Cyprus, where Allison James has become a member of their Advisory Council.
3. Childnetwork
CSCY joined the Childnetwork in December 2010.
