33rd Global
Conference of ICSW
Tours, France, June 30th to July 4th
The dynamics of social welfare in globalization:
Lessons from the past, challenges for today and tomorrow
Print this pageTuesday, July 1st: SOCIAL WORK
Social Work refers nowadays to a broad field of social actions, social professions and social services. The change from welfare state to “workfare” state is challenging social work to move from just providing activities and services. Civil society and individual citizens are expected to be responsible for their own employability and looking for their own work. But in a society that rewards individualism the state needs to guarantee civil, human and social rights. We are not predicting the end of the welfare state. The state still needs to be responsible for guaranteeing equal opportunities. An unfettered market does not provide nor can it guarantee opportunities for all.
The operating rules of social welfare are not self-sufficient, especially in order to meet the needs of the most vulnerable.

- 10/ Care for carers (French/English)
The care of sick, invalid and disabled persons is often the responsibility of people in their immediate environment, e.g. relatives, neighbours and friends. The workload can sometimes be enormous (when, for example, there are elderly parents, or when older children have to look after their younger siblings when orphaned).

- 11/ The role of users and NGOs in developing and implementing social policies (French/English)
Communities – local, religious, ethnic and others – have always been involved in implementing social policies, but “social welfare” has changed and become professional with support from public authorities.

- 12/ The right to housing (French/English)
While housing prices keep rising in countries of the North and the South, increasing poverty as well as growing international and rural migrations are preventing a larger number of people from finding decent homes. What is the best policy? It is crucial to regulate real estate markets in order to make more land available while preserving agricultural land. Although regulating rentals certainly has a damaging impact, the results of a more market-oriented policy are not as positive as expected. In any case, to guarantee the right to affordable housing, local communities must participate in its implementation.

- 16/Children at risk: early prevention (French)
Juvenile delinquency involves ever-younger perpetrators and takes on increasingly violent and collective expressions. Suicide, in all countries, is a major cause of death among 15 to 25 year-olds. Addictive behaviour is a reality for some children and young people.
The existing response to these acts is mostly curative, or repressive. But there are early prevention initiatives which can take action at an earlier stage and reduce the causes of such acts. They take place as soon as the first warning signals of disquiet are visible. Helping children to lastingly develop their capacities and talents so as to build their future: such is the aim of early prevention, which has already demonstrated its efficiency all around the world. This workshop will study these various actions, their methods and results.

- 17/Fighting human trafficking and its consequences (English)
In 2005, according to the ILO, approximately 2.4 million people around the world were the victims of human trafficking, whether for sexual exploitation or for other ends. Since they are more vulnerable than adults, children are the first victims of this trade.
Social workers play an essential role in the fight against human trafficking. One of the major obstacles they are facing is the reluctance of the victims to cooperate against their abusers.

- 18/Empowering civil society (English)
The mobilization and commitment of the players in civil society not only create the conditions which allow the granting of social rights to the least favored sectors of the population: They are also a key factor in the spreading of democratic rights.
The active presence on the public scene of all the sectors of a population, including the most marginalized, forms the very basis of citizenship.

- 19/Social inclusion (Continuation in workshop 39, day 2) (English)
Historically, in today’s industrialized countries, the social inclusion of marginalized populations occurred through their insertion into the labour force and through the granting of important social rights. In the past, social inclusion relied on the structures of traditional socialization, such as family and military service.
However, these structures are now experiencing increasing difficulties in fulfilling that role and are unable to stem the growth of marginalization. This phenomenon is particularly alarming in developing nations, but it is also apparent in countries which have been industrialized for a long time. Therefore, we need to closely analyze the issue of social insertion and to develop the appropriate tools to facilitate it.

- 20/ Social Workers: technicians intervening on social issues, or a stimulus and incentive for civil society? (French/English)
The professional duties of social workers have changed, as have their methods, and their role is often a subject of controversy. One approach is individualistic and technical, based on standards and norms, while another is collective, community-based and designed to get people back into mainstream civil society.
How effective is social work? How can more consideration be given to social rights, human respect and equality?

- 21/ New training needs for social work (French/English)

With changes in training, now including the principle of life-long education, courses offered must be relevant and designed to keep pace with future developments.
What political guidelines will be developed for a more professional approach to social welfare?
What diagnosis will provide the basis for setting prerequisites in the field of social work and social intervention?

What new social intervention practices will be developed in response to changing issues and greater demands for quality?

- 22/ Child, Family, State (French/English)
The way a society treats children is a good indicator of social development, and while the rights of the child have been formally recognised, they are not always respected and enforced.
When children are exposed to violence, in particular war, child labour, family neglect and abuse, should they become the responsibility of the State? How can a judge, social worker and the child’s entourage provide effective child welfare support?

- 24/Vulnerable population and social welfare policy in the Eastern European Countries (1990-2007) (English)
- 25/Building national councils or national member organisations of ICSW (English)
The second workshop on national councils will include three presentations –
An organisation in one the former states of the Soviet Union and now a focal organisation of the Black Sea NGO Network. The presenter will describe the challenges faced in emerging democracies in establishing a national umbrella organisation.
An organisation from China describing the challenges of establishing a national NGO in a society that is still heavily controlled.
An existing national member umbrella organisation from Africa that is experiencing their government’s disenchantment with NGOs. This issue is arising in countries where NGOs were once part of the independence movement but now are seen as at least a nuisance or threat by increasingly undemocratic regimes.
An existing organisation from the global North that is having to re-invent itself in an environment where national umbrella organisations are not seen as relevant in an established welfare state.

- 26/ Academic research in the field of social work (English)
In spite of the fact that political relations remain the determining factor in the making of social policies, university research can be a major contributor in that area. This workshop will provide some examples of how university research can possibly contribute to social policies.

- 27/ Gender studies and social work (English)
The multiple studies on the variations of social treatment of the sexes have shown the depth of the roots of gender discrimination. It is remarkable to note that this particular type of discrimination touches practically all aspects of social life, and its consequences are all the more dramatic since they are so difficult to identify. In any case, it remains one of the main targets of the fight against discrimination, which requires a daily commitment from social workers.
