It is the official journal of the International Association of Schools of Social Work (IASSW), the International Council on Social Welfare (ICSW) and the International Federation of Social Workers (IFSW).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The major focus of International Social Work is on the interaction between processes of globalisation and the development of social welfare at national level, as well as social work and community development locally. It aims to examine the meaning of international social work in practice and theory, and to explore how those concerned with social work and community development can engage with international issues. In addition, the journal aims to promote dissemination of material from cross-national research.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Periodically, special issues of International Social Work focus on specific topics or regions. Special Issues in 2008\/9 include ones with a focus on Africa; on Poverty; on &#8216;History of international social work&#8217;; and on Social Work and Health.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>News &amp; Views<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">2016 &#8211; 594:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.icsw.org\/images\/docs\/ISW\/2016_ISW_NewsAndViews594.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Human dignity and social protection: International Council on Social Welfare (ICSW) approach<\/a>\u00a0(378 KB)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">2016 &#8211; 593:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.icsw.org\/images\/docs\/ISW\/2016_ISW_NewsAndViews593.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A landmark Paris accord on climate change: A comment<\/a>\u00a0(340 KB)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">2015 &#8211; 583:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.icsw.org\/images\/docs\/ISW\/2015_ISW_NewsAndViews583.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">On the road to the Joint World Conference, 2016<\/a>\u00a0(335 KB)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">2014 &#8211; 576:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.icsw.org\/images\/docs\/ISW\/2014_ISW_NewsAndViews576.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Intergovernmental cooperation on ageing issues<\/a>\u00a0(325 KB)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">2014 &#8211; 573:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.icsw.org\/images\/docs\/ISW\/2014_ISW_NewsAndViews573.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">The Global Coalition for the Social Protection Floors<\/a>\u00a0(320 KB)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">2013 &#8211; 566:<a href=\"http:\/\/www.icsw.org\/images\/docs\/ISW\/2013_ISW_NewsAndViews566.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a0Civil society and national dialogue<\/a>\u00a0(663 KB)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">2013 &#8211; 563:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.icsw.org\/images\/docs\/ISW\/2013_ISW_NewsAndViews563.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IASSW, ICSW and IFSW establish Global Agenda Observatory<\/a>\u00a0(278 KB)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>international social work (ISW) International Social Wo [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":7685,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[108,106],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-7989","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-icsw","category-106"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7989","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7989"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7989\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7990,"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7989\/revisions\/7990"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/media\/7685"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7989"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7989"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/icsw.org.tw\/api\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7989"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
