We want to hear from you about what helps and hinders establishing and sustaining effective relationships with families. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/forms.gle\/MBXtEteVCwDFgqXD6\">Complete our new survey<\/a><\/p>\n<p>We are seeking leaders and practitioners in early years health or education services to share their practice wisdom, experience and expertise to contribute to co-designing an Australian Early Years Relational Practice Framework.<\/p>\n<p>Relational practices are at the heart of effective relationships between practitioners and practitioners and parents. Building a culture of partnership depends on everyone involved understanding and committing to authentic relational practice. However, practitioners, organisations, government departments, and communities across Australia are grappling with \u2018where to start\u2019 to build collaborative partnerships based on authentic relational practices.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>About the project<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><strong>What is needed is a clearly defined<\/strong> <strong>Relational Practice Framework. <\/strong>A framework to support leaders and practitioners in modelling and exploring the attributes of partnership. A framework that enables everyone to experience a culture of partnership in every interaction, decision made and opportunity to work together.<\/p>\n<p>At the Centre for Community Child Health we find, synthesise and translate the best international evidence to inform policy, service delivery, professional practice and parenting. We design robust service systems and platforms to create and support innovation and change. This puts us in a unique position to co-design a practice framework in partnership with parents, leading practitioners and researchers in Australia.<\/p>\n<p>Our aim is to <strong>bring together the best available research and evidence, the practice wisdom of early years practitioners and leaders, and the experience and expertise of parents and families<\/strong> to co-design a highly practical \u2018how to\u2019 guide of the relational components of engaging and working with parents, and across services, in integrated service settings.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Literature scan<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>This paper summarises what we know already about relational practice.
