International Social Work

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) extends knowledge and promotes international exchange in the fields of social work, social welfare, and community development.

Its major focus is on the interaction between processes of globalization and the development of social welfare at a national level, as well as social work and community development locally. It examines the meaning of international social work in practice and theory and explores how those concerned with social work and community development can engage with international issues. The journal also wants to encourage publication of comparative studies and cross-national research. International Social Work provides information on current international developments in education and training relevant to social work, social welfare, and community development.
