World Social Work Day -16th March 2021.

World Social Work Day is on the 16th March 2021.

This year, the 2021 World Social Day highlights Ubuntu: I am Because We Are.

According to Silvana Martinez, IFSW President:

"The theme comes from extensive consultation within IFSW and beyond. At a time when global politics has retreated into nationalism, Ubuntu is a powerful message on the need for solidarity at all levels: within communities, societies and globally. It is a message that all people are interconnected and that our future is dependent on recognizing all peoples involvement in co-building a sustainable, fair and socially just future. IFSW invites all social workers, partner organizations and people who care about the future to co-brand the poster. Together we can change world for this and future generations."
