17th SocNet98 IUW: "Methods and Methodology of Social Work - Reflecting Professional Interventions"
Welcome
to the 17th SocNet
98 International University Week:
"Methods and Methodologies of Social Work - Reflecting
Professional Interventions"
Hochschule Bremen’s School of Social Work hosts one of the
four 17th
SocNet98 IUWs during April 20rd – 23th
2015.
Participants of the SocNet98 IUW 2015 in Bremen
We kindly
invite social work students from all European countries as well as
university
lecturers to participate in this international program. We especially
call for
a participation of universities from the SocNet98 network but also would like to encourage
students, researchers, lecturers and social workers from other
backgrounds to
be part of this week.
The IUW 2015 in Bremen will
focus on the different aspects of social work’s methods as
well as social work
methodology. As a discipline and profession, it can build on a big
variety of
methods and techniques for its interventions. And the broader
frameworks of
social work methodology guide social workers through the process of
developing
and creating interventions with different stakeholders. They are
oriented along
the professional basis and ethical understanding of social work.
From an international
perspective, it is highly relevant to share, discuss and compare the
different
approaches, experiences, theories and research results about social
work’s manifold
methods and methodology. This should enable exchanges about the variety
of
approaches as well as to enlarge knowledge about bringing theory into
practice
in different settings and welfare contexts. This IUW aims to provide a
broad
forum for the full variety of methods and methodologies and invites
contributions from the different participant’s backgrounds.
The IUW 2015 in Bremen will include workshops, field-related excursions as well as social activities and offers a chance to visit Bremen and the north-west of Germany. Currently we calculate to invite about 50 visiting and 50 local students as well as about 15 lecturers.
