Presented by Nicola Atwool who is an associate professor in the Social and Community Work Programme at the University of Otago.

Nicola has professional qualifications in social work and child psychotherapy. During her career she has worked for what is now Oranga Tamariki and as principal advisor for the Office of the Children’s Commissioner.

She completed a PhD in 2008 exploring the use of attachment assessments in decision-making for children in care.
