Gebonden Engels 2026 9783032302304Samenvatting
This book brings together a group of active researchers and leading scholars of international social work with a special interest in contemporary issues and developments in Asian & Pacific Island regions. The original works stem from peer-reviewed paper presentations and invited keynote speeches at the APISWEA International Conferences, offering a comprehensive exploration of “state of the art” of Asian Pacific Islander social work research and practice with additional contributions from the broader international community. The manuscripts span diverse clusters, from professionalization and education in social work to emerging areas like Artificial Intelligence in practice, responses to epidemics, and the integration of indigenous perspectives in social work. By addressing critical themes such as localization, community development, and international collaboration, this rare collection provides valuable insights for both scholars and practitioners.
Along with a sister volume entitled Social Work and Social Sciences in the New Era: Cultural Perspectives and Asian Pacific Island Approaches, the book serves as an essential resource for social work professionals, educators, policymakers, and researchers who seek to understand and contribute to the evolving landscape of social work in the Asia-Pacific region. It is particularly beneficial for those involved in shaping the future of social work education, practice, and policy, ensuring that the unique needs and perspectives of diverse communities are effectively addressed.
