This project builds upon the work carried out in establishing the Victoria Climbié Inquiry Data Corpus at the University of Huddersfield. This is an archive of transcriptions of the examination of witnesses at a child protection inquiry after an 8-year-old girl from the Ivory Coast, Victoria Climbié, was murdered by her great aunt and her partner in February 2000. The inquiry was held in public in London from September 2001 to July 2002 and a report (Laming 2003) was presented to the Government in January 2003.This project builds upon the work carried out in establishing the Victoria Climbié Inquiry Data Corpus at the University of Huddersfield. This is an archive of transcriptions of the examination of witnesses at a child protection inquiry after an 8-year-old girl from the Ivory Coast, Victoria Climbié, was murdered by her great aunt and her partner in February 2000. The inquiry was held in public in London from September 2001 to July 2002 and a report (Laming 2003) was presented to the Government in January 2003. The previous project at the University of Huddersfield undertook work coding and annotating the witness statements from the Inquiry in such a way that users can search for topics across the entire verbal evidence. The examination of witnesses provides a large and complex body of data about the state of child protection services in the late 1990s. There is detailed testimony about professional practice, decisionmaking, inter-agency working, the context of service delivery and policy-making across all agencies. Witnesses were questioned about the day-to-day contact with Victoria and her great aunt but also policy and practice more generally. There was questioning about training, supervision, work allocation and atmosphere, resources, procedures and guidance, local authority policy and management, and Government audit. Witnesses included social workers, police officers, doctors, health workers and hospital staff, housing officials, voluntary agencies, team managers, advisory staff, senior managers, local politicians and government inspectors. This project proposes to take this large, analysed data set (currently in the form of an Atlas.ti project) and make it available via the University repository. These data are of central interest to researchers in child welfare, professional and legal studies, public administration and politics as well as teachers and students of a range of subjects, such as health care and social work, who deal with child welfare and to professionals needing to develop management and administrative skills in child welfare. The project will thus evaluate both the technical issues involved in depositing and making available a data set such as this and how it may be used effectively in teaching and learning with the key professions.
