Work Education

The study investigated social work students’ perceptions of elders as depressed and suffering (N= 156). Four predictor variables were identified from a standard regression analysis that account for 32% of the model’s adjusted variance: (a) perceptions of elders as vulnerable, (b) perceptions about elders as oppressed. Overall, respondents perceived elders as being depressed, vulnerable, members of an oppressed group, abusive of substances, and only moderately resilient in response to mental health services. Implications are discussed for social work education.

Professional Intervention

This conceptual paper considers aspects of a highly neglected topic: that of Islamic perspectives in social work education and practice. The paper seeks to illuminate both religiously informed values, together with those of practice; in addition to considering types of professional intervention that complement the generalised characteristics of Muslim families. The scale of problems that impact upon Muslim communities in Britain are closely considered, specifically in relation to deprivation, social alienation and domestic violence. In addition, health issues are reviewed in terms of mental health and disability.

Work Education

The aim of this chapter is to contribute to addressing issues of access and equity in social work education for people with mental health disabilities. The objective is to carefully consider the introduction of inherent requirements in universities, and particularly in relation to social work education, in Australia. A targeted review of relevant literature including legislation, policy, and practice standards frameworks identifies the parameters of inherent requirements and possible areas of discrimination. Consideration of the use of inherent requirements in social work education is from a human rights social justice perspective that acknowledges the strength and resources of people and communities and actively advocates for the protection of disability rights.
