The Third International Spring Institute of Fès

After the success of the last two annual meetings of 2009 and 2010, the International Institute of Sociology, Anthropology and Human Development of Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdellah University (Morocco) and the Regional Institute of Social Work of Bretagne (France) co-organize the third edition of the International Spring Institute of Fès. This institute will bring together different participants (Researchers, students, practitioners and NGOs members) to discuss in large groups and thematic workshops the challenges of the link between theory / practice, on the theme of “Social work, human development and skills empowerment: a cross-cultural approach. Participants in this event will undergo a process of exchange based on their proper experiences in different academic areas: education, research, internships and fieldwork.

The aim of the third edition of the Spring Institute is twofold. On the one hand, it will allow sensing/appreciating intercultural variations in human development that various contributors in the field of social action would take into account in all strategies of empowerment of  individual and collective skills. On the other hand, it will provide an opportunity for participants to share “tips and practical techniques” to identify the different modes of action on which social actors rely to handle empowerment skills among/regarding populations encountered in the field.

This event aims at an international level to address all that is proportionate to the thematic, bringing more focus on the field of
training, of social work intervention or research which involves not only: researchers, students and social actors but also a large audience that will find in this opportunity means to discover and/or enhance aspects of city life and the practice of citizenship.
