The European Social Services Conference (ESSC; https://essc-eu.org) is the annual flagship event of the European Social Network (ESN; https://www.esn-eu.org), the leading network for public social services in Europe. The ESSC is Europe’s largest public social welfare policy and practice forum. The previous edition was attended by almost 700 delegates in Malmö, Sweden, in 2023. At the 32nd European Social Services Conference (Antwerp, Belgium, 26-28 June 2024), we will discuss how we can co-create community-based social services, with a specific focus on three thematic strands: (1) Co-creating Cities Social Inclusion, (2) Co-creating Responses to Manage the Future Workforce, and (3) Co-creating Digital Solutions for Social Inclusion. This Research Topic welcomes papers that will provide both theoretical insights and explorations as well as empirical evidence. Alongside learning from practice and responding to research findings, we also want to understand, challenge and refine the theoretical lenses which underpin our assumptions about social inclusion and diversity in relation to social policy and social services. Potential issues include three thematic strands, but are not limited to: (1) Co-creating Cities Social Inclusion • community Care models in cities • fighting residential exclusion • neighborhood approaches • managing childhood and youth transitions in areas such as early childcare or child protection • support planning for people with disabilities in aspects related to work and social participation • support programs for ageing populations in fighting loneliness, promoting community support • managing diversity in the community • co-production in local social services planning, delivery, and evaluation • theories of community development and how these relate to different forms of social capital • recent theories and concepts in urban sociology, sociological practice, social policy, and social work • theoretical approaches to social problems, issues, and challenges, including those underlined by the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. (2) Co-creating Responses to Manage the Future Workforce • workforce planning and management strategies • training for co-production with people using services and their families • registration and accreditation programs • programs to break down gender stereotypes • innovation and digital programs supporting social care and support, such as digital tools or forecasting scenarios • theories of professional motivations and how these can incentivize or deter person-centered and community care. (3) Co-creating Digital Solutions for Social Inclusion • prioritization of person-centered care and relationship-based practice • improvement of services interaction • addressing digital readiness for practice • enhancing people’s autonomy • increasing the data security • addressing ethical concerns and data protection needs • theoretical approaches to the digital divide and social inclusion • theories of leadership and how these translate to virtual contexts. We are looking forward to selecting manuscripts demonstrating a wide range of approaches and forward-thinking ideas to enhance personalization in social services. We want to provide an opportunity for presenters involved in the ESSC 2024 program, covering both scholars and practitioners from various sectors, to publish their papers. We also look forward to including articles from scholars and practitioners who did not present their work during our event. This Research Topic is fully open to practical and theoretical submissions that have not been included for presentation during the ESSC 2024. This Research Topic welcomes submissions of the following article types: Brief Research Report, Community Case Study, Conceptual Analysis, General Commentary, Hypothesis & Theory, Methods, Mini Review, Opinion, Original Research, Perspective, Policy and Practice Reviews, Review, and Study Protocol.

In this visionary book, C. K. Prahalad and Venkat Ramaswamy explore why, despite unbounded opportunities for innovation, companies still can't satisfy customers and sustain profitable growth. The explanation for this apparent paradox lies in recognizing the structural changes brought about by the convergence of industries and technologies; ubiquitous connectivity and globalization; and, as a consequence, the evolving role of the consumer from passive recipient to active co-creator of value. Managers need a new framework for value creation. Increasingly, individual customers interact with a network of firms and consumer communities to co-create value. No longer can firms autonomously create value. Neither is value embedded in products and services per se. Products are but an artifact around which compelling individual experiences are created. As a result, the focus of innovation will shift from products and services to experience environments that individuals can interact with to co-construct their own experiences. These personalized co-creation experiences are the source of unique value for consumers and companies alike. In this emerging opportunity space, companies must build new strategic capital—a new theory on how to compete. This book presents a detailed view of the new functional, organizational, infrastructure, and governance capabilities that will be required for competing on experiences and co-creating unique value.

Dealing with a rapidly changing world is the purview of all professions. Nowhere is this truer than in those professions dealing with well-being, social change, justice, and equity. What is the future of social work as a profession, and how should social work prepare for--and help to shape--what comes next? In Anticipatory Social Work, Laura Burney Nissen asserts that social work faces a series of vital turning points for its own future including artificial intelligence and technology in our shared world and the impacts of climate change on human well-being. These relate to new kinds of practice challenges--and mutations of old ones. Anticipatory social work is simultaneously a philosophy that becoming more ready for the future is not only possible, but desirable; a history and global community of those doing exactly that; and a set of tools and techniques for bringing this to life in an ethical and equitable manner. This includes such features as actively and imaginatively considering scenarios of what the future may hold and assisting communities to prepare for the unexpected. Going beyond simple labels of utopia and dystopia, anticipatory social work engages individual and group skills to bring a sense of playfulness, possibility, and creativity to the opportunities social workers have to make a difference in this world. This book includes an overview and history of foresight, methods, and tools; a practice template to provide guidance and put ideas into action; and explicit ideas of how social workers can become more "future ready" in their work. It aims to help social workers become individually more effective and engaged in relation to issues of the future that promote more justice and success, and intentionally help move the profession forward on purpose.

This open access book attends to the co-creation of digital public services for ageing societies. Increasingly public services are provided in digital form; their uptake however remains well below expectations. In particular, amongst older adults the need for public services is high, while at the same time the uptake of digital services is lower than the population average. One of the reasons is that many digital public services (or e-services) do not respond well to the life worlds, use contexts and use practices of its target audiences. This book argues that when older adults are involved in the process of identifying, conceptualising, and designing digital public services, these services become more relevant and meaningful. The book describes and compares three co-creation projects that were conducted in two European cities, Bremen and Zaragoza, as part of a larger EU-funded innovation project. The first part of the book traces the origins of co-creation to three distinct domains, in which co-creation has become an equally important approach with different understandings of what it is and entails: (1) the co-production of public services, (2) the co-design of information systems and (3) the civic use of open data. The second part of the book analyses how decisions about a co-creation project’s governance structure, its scope of action, its choice of methods, its alignment with strategic policies and its embedding in existing public information infrastructures impact on the process and its results. The final part of the book identifies key challenges to co-creation and provides a more general assessment of what co-creation may achieve, where the most promising areas of application may be and where it probably does not match with the contingent requirements of digital public services. Contributing to current discourses on digital citizenship in ageing societies and user-centric design, this book is useful for researchers and practitioners interested in co-creation, public sector innovation, open government, ageing and digital technologies, citizen engagement and civic participation in socio-technical innovation.

This chapter discusses about the development of the research problem based upon relevant literature on organisational citizenship behaviour (OCB) and service-dominant logic (SDL). The integrated efforts to synthesise varied literature on dimensions, antecedents (organisational justice, organisational commitment, employee participation, customer participation, motivation, personality traits) and consequences (organisational performance and value creation) of OCB and SDL lead to the identification of research gap and development of conceptual framework of the study. This chapter is divided into two sections. The first section discusses review of literature from synthesised and tabular perspective. The second section discusses in detail, the research framework of the study based on the research gap identified in the study.

Social Work and the Arts: Expanding Horizons is a collection of writings that explores how expressive methods are used in social work education, practice, research, and community action. Edited by Shelley Cohen Konrad and Michal Sela-Amit, the book aims to answer the question: What do the arts offer social work education, research, and practice? This query is woven throughout the four sections of the book: first, on the various ways the arts are used in social work education; second, an examination of art-based social work research; third, a compilation of narratives by social workers who are artists in their own right; and finally, the future of the social work profession and its relationship to the arts. Written by authors from diverse backgrounds, each with a unique perspective on the benefits of the arts in their respective areas of expertise, Social Work and the Arts is a must-read for anyone interested in the arts and social work and for those who are just beginning to explore its relevance in the field.

Practitioners and managers in child protection often struggle to focus on the needs of children and families in the face of ever-expanding bureaucracy. This book brings together authors from across Europe to explore the strategies and solutions that promote doing things right by those in need rather than to the letter of procedure. It argues that more flexible, community/relationship/partnership-based approaches are required to meet the needs of parents and children experiencing difficulties and risk of harm. Essential reading for academics, practitioners, managers and policy makers in social work and child welfare, it contributes to the development of reflective thinking and spotlights the potential of co-production and co-creation.
