MEC: Social Justice, Wellbeing, Identity- taking forward a cross-sector approach

Aim of the day:
The aim is to take the ISME World Conference themes of Social Justice, Well-being and Identity and to examine them through the various sector lenses – aiming to establish what we can learn from each other (so not re-inventing the wheel); where there are differences and similarities in perception and practice; how we can influence others and how we can celebrate good practice.
