Description
Human Rights and Social Work: Towards Rights-Based Practice explores how human rights concepts underpin the social work profession and inform practice. It examines three generations of human rights, systems of oppression, ethics, and approaches to human rights.
The book discusses fundamental aspects of social work, including language, processes, structures, and theories. Case studies are included on current events, movements, and human rights crises, such as the Black Lives Matter movement and homelessness among LGBTIQA+ young people.
This edition is accompanied by online resources for students and instructors, making it an indispensable guide for social work students and practitioners.
