They will demonstrate the deficit of power experienced by many children and young people, particularly those engaged in treatment and/or social services and who may be victims of poverty and abuse. There will be a particular focus on child welfare inequalities relating to deprivation and the greater exposure to risk associated with this. It will explore how services can be improved for children and their families by acknowledging the role of power relations in tackling social justice.
