A ‘Back Door’ Exploration of Social Problems in Comic Strip Dialogues With Marginalized Children
Based on 35 comic strip dialogues with marginalized children in Italy, Norway and Slovenia, as well as three individual interviews with Italian practitioners, this article introduces a methodological approach that offers a ‘back door’ for exploring social problems embedded in the everyday lives of children.

Pathways for practitioners’ participation in creating the practice-research encounter
Several major evaluation reports agree that while we know much about interventions that are effective, little use is made of them to help achieve important outcomes for children, families, and adults. Practice-Research uses locally based research and/or evaluation in an attempt to fill this gap.

Évaluer pour mieux intervenir: Évaluer les résultats et les processus pour améliorer les pratiques d’intervention auprès des familles négligentes1
Certaines familles sont caractérisées par un grand niveau de vulnérabilité en raison de différents facteurs tels que l’histoire personnelle et familiale, des situations de pauvreté, d’isolement social, etc. Dans ces situations, la capacité des parents à prendre soin de leur enfant peut se révéler plutôt limitée. En Italie, dans le but de soutenir ces familles vulnérables, et celles qui sont négligentes en particulier, les interventions éducatives…
