Scottish Journal of Residential Child Care Vol 22 No 1
Welcome to the spring 2023 issue of the Scottish Journal of Residential Child Care. In the lead-up to publication of this issue, enforced migration and dislocation of children and families has featured in news reports and we include two articles about supporting refugees in Scotland. This issue is packed with long-form, peer-reviewed research papers, five short articles, and book reviews. It also includes the full-text transcripts of two major lectures. Newly elected UN Committee on the Rights of The Child Chair Ann Skelton of the University of Pretoria gave the 20th Kilbrandon Lecture on Children of the Beloved Country: Lives and Legacies from Kilbrandon to Mandela, and the SIRCC 2022 keynote lecture, given by Bill Kahn of Boston University who addressed the conditions required for resilient caregiving organisations.
