The Yorkshire Urban and Rural Social Work Teaching Partnership recognises the key role that Practice Educators play in ensuring quality social work is taught, practiced and delivered. As such, for World Social Work Day 2022, the Partnership is hosting a virtual event which will provide a chance for our Partnership Practice Educators to be celebrated, to engage with key topics and people, to learn, reflect and develop. The event will include student nominated awards to recognise the commitment and hard work of our Practice Educators.
The World Social Work Day theme: ´Co-building a New Eco-Social World: Leaving No One Behind´ coincides with the theme of the people´s summit that will take place on the 29th June to the 2nd July. The theme presents a vision and action plan to create new global values, policies and practices that develop trust, security and confidence for all people and the sustainability of the planet. World Social Work Day 2022 will be a highlight opportunity for the social work profession to engage all social work networks and the community they work within to make contributions to the values and principles which enable all people to have their dignity respected through shared futures.
