Advancing the Human Rights Content of the Social Work Curriculum
Journal of Social Work Education, v60 n3 p376-387 2024
Recognizing the current turmoil resulting in the displacement of large numbers of people across the globe, the continuing persecution of groups within their countries, and the necessity of responding effectively and globally to human vulnerability, the authors argue for the elevation of human rights content within the social work curriculum. The authors examine the forces, both contemporary and historic, calling for a stronger relevance of human rights now and into the foreseeable future, the relevance of human rights content to social work education, and the broad scope of human rights content educators can map across the social work curriculum. They conclude the article by offering a curriculum framework supporting human rights practice education in social work.
