Spanish child protection system is, since the adoption of a new regulation on this matter in 2015, immersed in a phase of reflection and change. The new legislation brings important novelties in this field, but, despite having more than three years in force, it is still pending to materialize on many issues.
In this context, it is necessary to think on the possibility of incorporating good practices and new models that could help to achieve family, permanent and consensual solutions for children, as it is demanded by the law.
One of these practices, frequently used in other countries, is the Concurrent Planning. Throughout these article, we will reflect on the nature of this type of intervention, its characteristics, requirements and results, and its possible applicability to the Spanish child protection system.
