Подкаст о социальной работе в Англии по-русски.

This podcast gives a brief introduction to social work in England in Russian.

Social work is born out of social justice. In this podcast we look at what this means for social workers working with individuals and working to change society.

In this podcast we start to consider the social and economic context of social work. We discuss how social workers can act to influence society and how our society influences what we do.

In this podcast we discuss how we decide what evidence to use in social work, and we talk about the difference between using evidence to defend our views and using evidence to explore.

This podcast explores how we build trust in us as social workers by being open about our expertise and by using the best evidence available. We discuss legitimacy, empowerment and knowledge exchange.

In this podcast we think our way through the complex area of social work regulation - what is it for, who is it for, and how can it be helpful? We consider how the relationship between the social work profession, the regulator and government can work well, so that social work can develop and flourish for the benefit of people who need it.

In this podcast we explore how different professional cultures affect the way agencies interact. We use a model to help understand how to build bridges between social work and other agencies.

This podcast explores how we can specialise and develop our social work expertise within a single profession. And we discuss how specific standards can help (or hinder) practice development.

In this podcast we continue our discussion about how social work works with other agencies and, in particular, how we best negotiate roles, responsibilities and joint decisions.

In this podcast we consider how austerity policies impact on society, and how we social workers can respond helpfully and hopefully.
