BASW England’s Maris Stratulis reflects on week 3 of World Social Work Month and pays tribute to social workers across England, the UK and the world – before looking ahead to next week of #WSWmonth led by the Scottish Association of Social Workers.
Children as young as three were shipped abroad with the promise of a better life – only to find themselves enduring a life of child slavery, abuse and neglect.
A well as exploring themes and priorities in each country of the UK, these events present a unique opportunity to come together as a profession - across borders and languages and cultures - to shine a light on what unites us as social workers across the UK and globally.
