“Social work is a practice-based profession and an academic discipline that promotes
social change and development, social cohesion, and the empowerment and
liberation of people. Principles of social justice, human rights, collective responsibility
and respect for diversities are central to social work. Underpinned by theories of
social work, social sciences, humanities and indigenous knowledge, social
work engages people and structures to address life challenges and enhance
wellbeing.
