Internationalizing Social Work Education

"This important book reminds social work education that it has a history, with its own heroes who spearheaded the international development of the profession through a commitment to social justice and academic rigour." Steve Myers, University of Salford
“The contributors to this book speak passionately and eloquently about the role of the social work profession and education providers from a myriad of contexts… the voices of the academics and practitioners contained within serve to remind us of the crucial role that social work can have and the complexities inherent in sharing knowledge across boundaries.” Critical and Radical Social Work
"I was struck by the importance for social work of challenging policy at national and international levels and also of seeking innovation in practice by asking ourselves continuously how social problems are addressed elsewhere. The text reminds us that social work can and should operate not only at the level of individual support, but across community and activist spheres and in statutory, non-governmental and grassroots organisations. What the book conveys perhaps most strikingly is the power of alliances between academia, practitioners and those who need protection, empowerment or support." The British Journal of Social Work
"This is an enthralling and stimulating read." Steve Rogowski, Professional Social Work Magazine
