| dc.description.abstract | This poster is presenting the firsthand results of open-ended questionnaire and focus groups sessions conducted with social workers who had sustainability as a core course topic in their Bachelor of Social Work curriculum. Our poster will focus on 1) definitions of environmental sustainability from the perspective of participants; 2) social work practice fields that participants indicated as favorable to incorporate sustainability and 3) barriers to incorporate sustainability in social work daily practice. Our study aims to understand ways that social workers exposed to sustainability course topics have been enacting environmental sustainability in their social work practice. Our purpose is to inform and discuss the need for change in incorporating sustainability into the Social Work curriculum and encouraging professional development of environmental sustainability social work practice. | |
