Welfare Reform Events - Learning from Scotland – Gender

However it is important that our sector remains focused on what really matters - the impact of welfare changes on people and communities. We can learn much from looking elsewhere to what other people are already facing.

With this in mind NICVA led a delegation to Scotland in March were we met with a range of organisations and learnt a lot about the effects of welfare reform on their service users and areas.

Following from this we have now arranged for a number of these organisations to come to NICVA and share their knowledge and experience with the sector here. Each event will focus on a different user group.

For this event we have asked Jill Scott, Policy Manager at Engender to share her experiences and engage in a discussion with us. Engender recently published the research report "A Widening Gap: Women and Welfare Reform".
