Social Pedagogy and Social Work

About this book

Are you looking to understand more about social pedagogy? Wanting to see how you can incorporate these approaches into your practice?

Ali Gardner and Lowis Charfe introduce you to this exciting new approach to UK social work practice that has been shaping care services in Europe for decades. It is a holistic approach that requires an absolute commitment to employing your head, heart, and hand in creatively working alongside individuals to support the process of change at an individual, communal, and societal level.

  • The authors outline the key concepts, philosophy, and history of social pedagogy to ground you in the theory
  • Exercises help you to reflect on how to incorporate this new philosophy into your work
  • Practical examples demonstrate how you can apply key principles to your own practice

After reading this book you will be able to confidently engage with social work that emphasises people rather than processes at the heart of intervention.
