Our Council has been organizing ‘Evidence-based Practice Social Work Research Salons’, which aims to share the social work studies with practitioners in the sector, and to exchange how relevant research can inspire policy advocacy and service development.

Recently, many social welfare organizations are exploring utilizing data science to identify core issues and needs of the social groups as well as for social service planning and efficient allocation of social welfare resources. Dr. Lam Tat and Miss Ko Ming Hui have been invited as our guest speakers in the coming salon. By sharing the social data application experience in projects “Targeted Poverty Alleviation” and “Time Bank”, they would discuss the strength of data science on matching welfare resources and service planning, the challenge they face and their responses to the challenges.

Details of the Research Salon are listed below:
