Episode 5 - International Social Work Networks: Insights from SWAN Greece & IFSW

This time we are going international - with guests from Greece,
Germany and Bosnia!


It's our first english speaking episode and we are happy to give
special insights into the work of International networks like
IFSW and the greek SWAN. We focus on the similiarities as well as
differences of the challenges we as socialworkers deal with
worldwide in our daily practice.


We have talked with Nadja and Theresa from the German Association
of Social work (DBSH Germany) about their activities on a global
level. Additionally, Eirini & Myrsini will give you an
insight into the approaches of radical social work at SWAN
Greece. Furthermore Adna, a social worker from Sarajevo, is
sharing (special) circumstances for social workers in Bosnia
caused by the post war society.


Also a big thank you to our Berlin-Podcast Band DAFFFKE.
