Promoting Food Justice and the Right to Adequate Food in Social Work Education 在社会工作教育中促进粮食公正和充足食物权
IF 1.2 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2024-02-03 DOI: 10.1007/s41134-023-00286-9

Abstract

Food justice is centered on the principle that food is a basic human right. Despite a mandate to include human rights and social justice content in the social work curriculum, food insecurity and food justice receive scant attention in social work academia. Food insecurity affects a substantial portion of the population, with a disproportionate impact on women and Black, Latinx, and Native American communities. A human rights-based approach to food requires more than access to food; it demands that food also be available, adequate, and culturally acceptable. A right to food framework also calls on policymakers to immediately address disparities in food security, which are prevalent in the USA due to historical and ongoing systemic racism. This paper provides a conceptual understanding of food justice and its historical connections to social work, outlines the requirements of a right to food, and concludes by offering strategies to integrate food justice into the micro, mezzo, and macro social work curriculum.

摘要 粮食公正的核心原则是粮食是一项基本人权。尽管社会工作课程中必须包含人权和社会正义的内容,但社会工作学术界对粮食不安全和粮食正义的关注却很少。粮食不安全影响着相当一部分人口,对妇女、黑人、拉美裔和美国原住民社区的影响尤为严重。基于人权的食物权方法要求的不仅仅是获得食物;它还要求食物的可获得性、充足性和文化上的可接受性。食物权框架还要求政策制定者立即解决食品安全方面的不平等问题,由于历史上持续存在的系统性种族主义,这种不平等在美国十分普遍。本文从概念上理解了食物正义及其与社会工作的历史联系,概述了食物权的要求,最后提出了将食物正义纳入微观、中观和宏观社会工作课程的策略。

There is increasing contractual hiring since the economic reforms of 1991 which led to the subsequent vague implementation of labour laws in factories, resulting in a detrimental impact on labour rights. It makes the understanding of the on-going contractualisation of work and the impact on labour rights critical for the protection of human rights at workplace. This study uses inductive methodology for analysis grounded on secondary data and literature review. The secondary data is drawn from publicly available reports of national and international agencies. Findings of the study suggested economic and labour reforms played a considerable role in contractulisation of work and followed by the adverse impact on labour rights and dignity of work. Extensive use of contractual labour has led to massive devaluation in working conditions, making worker’s situations highly vulnerable and informal caused by non-attendance of labour rights. This process of contractualisation of work in sweatshops has expedited the dehumanisation of labour while weakening labour rights in India.

自 1991 年经济改革以来,合同工越来越多,导致随后工厂对劳动法的执行模糊不清,从而对劳工权利产生了不利影响。因此,了解正在进行的工作合同化及其对劳工权利的影响对于保护工作场所的人权至关重要。本研究以二手数据和文献综述为基础,采用归纳法进行分析。二手数据来自国家和国际机构的公开报告。研究结果表明,经济和劳动改革在工作合同化方面发挥了重要作用,并对劳动权利和工作尊严产生了不利影响。合同工的广泛使用导致了工作条件的大幅贬值,使工人的处境变得非常脆弱,并因劳动权利得不到重视而变得不正规。血汗工厂的劳动合同化进程加速了劳工的非人化,同时削弱了印度的劳工权利。

Sexual orientation and gender identity change efforts (SOGICE) remains a threat to LGBTQ + young people throughout many parts of the USA, increasing risks for many mental health problems, including suicidal behaviors. Little research, though, has examined the strategies activists use to ban licensed professionals (e.g., social workers) from practicing SOGICE. The present study, therefore, involved semi-structured interviews with 15 LGBTQ + individuals affiliated with a grassroots organization focused on banning SOGICE in one Southern state in the USA. Thematic analysis generated six themes: knowledge is power, empathy and communication, utilizing media platforms, professional development, awareness of diversity, and growth areas. Findings suggest LGBTQ + grassroots activism organizations should focus on educating members and volunteers about SOGICE, history, and the legislative process, strengthen empathy-related skills, amplify their voices through media platforms, provide opportunities for job skill development, and foster inclusive environments. Social workers can use these findings to strengthen activism-related skills among LGBTQ + individuals interested in becoming activists to ban SOGICE in Southern states.

在美国许多地方,性取向和性别认同改变工作(SOGICE)仍然是对 LGBTQ + 青少年的一种威胁,增加了许多心理健康问题的风险,包括自杀行为。然而,很少有研究探讨激进分子采用哪些策略来禁止持证专业人员(如社会工作者)从事改变性别认同工作。因此,本研究采用半结构式访谈的方式,采访了 15 名 LGBTQ + 个人,他们都隶属于一个草根组织,该组织的工作重点是在美国南部的一个州禁止 SOGICE。专题分析产生了六个主题:知识就是力量、移情与沟通、利用媒体平台、职业发展、多样性意识和成长领域。研究结果表明,LGBTQ + 草根活动组织应注重对成员和志愿者进行有关社会性别歧视、历史和立法程序的教育,加强与移情相关的技能,通过媒体平台放大他们的声音,提供工作技能发展的机会,并营造包容的环境。社会工作者可以利用这些研究结果,加强有兴趣成为活动家的 LGBTQ + 个人的活动相关技能,以在南部各州禁止 SOGICE。

Low Pay for Social Workers is a Human Rights Violation, and Social Work Professors Must Help to Change It 社会工作者的低工资是对人权的侵犯,社会工作教授必须帮助改变这种状况
IF 1.2 Q2 Social Sciences Pub Date : 2024-01-26 DOI: 10.1007/s41134-023-00285-w

Abstract

Despite an unending commitment to social justice and equality, social work remains among the lowest paid professions in the United States (U.S.). This issue ultimately rises to the level of an economic human rights violation for both practitioners and their clients. Furthermore, since social workers consist of among the highest rates of women and women of color in the field compared to all other professions, this raises additional questions about human rights violations related to the gender, racial, and ethnic inequalities. Social work professors, who typically make much higher salaries than social work practitioners, have a moral responsibility to raise awareness and advocate for higher pay for practitioners, through both their research and advocacy. This article describes how increases in pay for social workers could simultaneously improve pay for women and women of color and improve the level of services provided to the disadvantaged populations to whom social workers are of service. Additional suggestions are made on what specifically social work professors can do to help increases wages for practitioners and therefore increase human rights.

摘要 尽管社会工作一直致力于社会公正和平等,但在美国,社会工作仍然是收入最低的职业之一。这个问题最终上升到了侵犯从业者及其服务对象经济人权的高度。此外,与所有其他职业相比,社会工作者中女性和有色人种妇女的比例最高,这就提出了更多与性别、种族和民族不平等有关的侵犯人权问题。社会工作教授的薪酬通常比社会工作从业人员高得多,他们有道义责任通过研究和宣传来提高人们的认识,并倡导提高从业人员的薪酬。本文介绍了提高社会工作者的薪酬如何能够同时提高女性和有色人种女性的薪酬,以及提高为社会工作者所服务的弱势群体提供服务的水平。文章还就社会工作教授可以采取哪些具体措施来帮助提高从业人员的工资,从而增强人权提出了其他建议。

Sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR) are fundamental for human well-being and development. This descriptive phenomenological study examines the mothers’ perspectives on SRHR of adolescents with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). The study involved 21 participants selected through purposive sampling, and data saturation criteria were applied. Data was gathered through face-to-face, semi-structured, in-depth interviews. The participants were from backgrounds marked by poor socio-economic conditions that may have influenced their experiences and perceptions. The study identifies key themes, including “neglect and denial of sexual and reproductive health education (SRHE),” “fear of sexual abuse,” and “healthcare inequity.” It is essential to prioritize inclusive SRHE and ensure accessible healthcare services. The paper discussed social work implications also. In this scenario, it is crucial to enable parents and educators with the knowledge for informed discussions—needed innovative interventions aimed at promoting the SRHR of adolescents with IDD.

性与生殖健康和权利(SRHR)是人类福祉和发展的基础。这项描述性现象学研究探讨了母亲对智力和发育障碍(IDD)青少年性与生殖健康和权利的看法。本研究通过有目的的抽样选出了 21 名参与者,并采用了数据饱和标准。数据通过面对面、半结构化、深入访谈的方式收集。参与者的社会经济条件较差,这可能影响了他们的经历和看法。研究确定了关键主题,包括 "忽视和拒绝性与生殖健康教育(SRHE)"、"害怕性虐待 "和 "医疗保健不公平"。必须优先考虑包容性的性与生殖健康教育,并确保可获得医疗保健服务。文件还讨论了社会工作的影响。在这种情况下,让家长和教育工作者掌握进行知情讨论的知识至关重要--这也是促进智障青少年性健康和生殖健康及权利所需的创新干预措施。

In Myanmar (formerly Burma), there is a long history of human rights violation against the Rohingya, an ethnic minority, predominately Muslim and stateless. The international society started giving stronger consideration after the holocaust in 2012 involving over 200 Rohingya, instigated by the majority ethnic group, Rakhine, who are predominately Buddhist. Stakeholders of global and regional governance express concerns for populations who had to flee their residential homelands, whereas stateless people are generally excluded. Typically, refugees with recognized legal nationalities have been the predominant focus of the international community. However, following Myanmar’s military attack against the Rohingya and their subsequent forced relocation in August 2017, international organizations as well as the US government openly criticized the Myanmar government for violent attacks that were labeled as “crimes against humanity,” “genocide,” and “ethnic cleansing.” In the case of the Rohingya, the statelessness status became an additional aspect of a violation of human rights. The authors analyzed the state of global governance in regard to the Rohingya Crisis with constructivist framework which focuses on multiple perspectives among stakeholders. With the results of the analysis, the authors examined the implications for social work practice, including increased sharing along with more involvement of social workers to end this long history of human rights violation.

在缅甸(前身为缅甸),侵犯罗兴亚人人权的行为由来已久。罗兴亚人是少数民族,主要信奉穆斯林,没有国籍。2012 年,在以佛教徒为主的若开族煽动下,200 多名罗兴亚人遭受大屠杀,此后,国际社会开始更加关注这一问题。全球和区域治理的利益相关者对不得不逃离其居住家园的人群表示关切,而无国籍人士通常被排除在外。通常情况下,国际社会主要关注的是拥有公认合法国籍的难民。然而,在 2017 年 8 月缅甸对罗兴亚人发动军事袭击并随后强迫他们迁移之后,国际组织以及美国政府公开批评缅甸政府的暴力袭击行为被贴上了 "反人类罪"、"种族灭绝 "和 "种族清洗 "的标签。就罗兴亚人而言,无国籍状态成为侵犯人权的另一个方面。作者采用建构主义框架分析了罗兴亚危机的全球治理状况,该框架注重利益相关者之间的多重视角。根据分析结果,作者探讨了对社会工作实践的影响,包括加强共享和社会工作者的更多参与,以结束这一侵犯人权的悠久历史。

The purpose of this study is to identify the role of autism centers in enhancing the social skills of autistic children from the point of view of social workers working in autism centers as well to identify the major obstacles and needs of the autism centers to enhance the social skills of autistic children. The participants in the study consisted of 128 social workers working in autism centers in the emirates of Ajman and Sharjah in the United Arab Emirates. This descriptive study was based on a questionnaire consisting of 40 items was designed and randomly distributed to social workers at different autism centers in the emirates of Ajman and Sharjah. The results of the study revealed that social workers have a high-perspective point of view on the important role of autism centers in enhancing autistic children’s social skills, the necessity to provide social and psychological support programs for autistic children at the center, and increasing the number of competent social workers inside the autism centers. The study also showed that the role of autism centers in enhancing the social skills of autistic children varies according to the gender of social workers in favor of male social workers, and there were no statistically significant differences according to the variables of academic qualification and the experience of social workers. The study recommended more studies on children with autism and autism centers.

本研究旨在从在自闭症中心工作的社会工作者的角度,确定自闭症中心在提高自闭症儿童社交技能方面的作用,并确定自闭症中心在提高自闭症儿童社交技能方面的主要障碍和需求。这项研究的参与者包括在阿拉伯联合酋长国阿治曼和沙迦酋长国的自闭症中心工作的 128 名社会工作者。这项描述性研究设计了一份包含 40 个项目的调查问卷,并随机分发给阿治曼和沙迦酋长国不同自闭症中心的社工。研究结果表明,社工对自闭症中心在提高自闭症儿童社交能力方面的重要作用、在中心为自闭症儿童提供社会和心理支持项目的必要性以及增加自闭症中心内有能力的社工人数等问题持高瞻远瞩的观点。研究还显示,自闭症中心在提高自闭症儿童社交能力方面的作用因社工的性别而异,男性社工更受青睐,社工的学历和经验变量在统计学上没有显著差异。研究建议对自闭症儿童和自闭症中心开展更多研究。

The paper adds to a growing body of social work research that examines service delivery during the COVID-19 pandemic. The advent and spread of COVID-19 is a global phenomenon and social work is a global profession. Yet context is important, and the pandemic was experienced differently, as the literature on inequality has shown. Narratives of social workers in their own contexts illuminate differences and similarities and provide leads for practice in a future which many predict has forever changed. This paper is derived from qualitative interviews with ten social workers across three fields of practice in the United Arab Emirates and focuses on mental health issues from a human rights perspective.

越来越多的社会工作研究调查了COVID-19大流行期间的服务提供情况,该论文为这些研究增添了新的内容。COVID-19的出现和传播是一个全球现象,社会工作是一个全球性的职业。然而,背景很重要,正如关于不平等的文献所表明的那样,人们经历了不同的大流行。社会工作者在其自身背景下的叙述阐明了差异和相似之处,并为许多人预测永远改变的未来的实践提供了线索。本文来自对阿拉伯联合酋长国三个实践领域的10名社会工作者的定性访谈,并从人权角度关注心理健康问题。

Education is one undeniable pathway from poverty. Research has consistently shown the positive effects of higher education level on lifetime earnings. Financing to achieve this can lead to student loan debt, which has become a crisis affecting financial and health wellbeing among some borrowers and disparities in higher education access further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the fact that access to higher education has been deemed a right in Article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the student loan crisis threatens access for some. Lack of ratification of the document by the U.S. further pushes the need for critical discussion. Therefore, the purpose of this narrative review was to examine the state of the student loan debt crisis and raise implications for policy. WorldCat, SocINDEX, and Academic Search Complete databases were searched utilizing a combination of key words associated with college student loans and debt, economic justice. Findings showed student loan debt, repayment challenges, and inequities in higher education access remain widespread. There is a need for more social work–based empirical research on student loan debt and social work engagement that promotes critical conversations utilizing an economic justice perspective. Implications for social work practice, policy, and research are discussed.

教育是摆脱贫困的一条不可否认的途径。研究一致表明,高等教育水平对终身收入有积极影响。实现这一目标的融资可能导致学生贷款债务,这已成为影响一些借款人财务和健康福祉的危机,COVID-19大流行进一步加剧了高等教育机会的差距。尽管《世界人权宣言》第26条将接受高等教育视为一项权利,但学生贷款危机威胁到一些人的入学机会。美国没有批准该文件,进一步推动了关键讨论的必要性。因此,本叙述性审查的目的是检查学生贷款债务危机的状态,并提出对政策的影响。利用与大学学生贷款和债务、经济公正相关的关键词组合,对WorldCat、SocINDEX和Academic Search Complete数据库进行了搜索。调查结果显示,学生贷款债务、还款挑战和高等教育机会的不平等仍然普遍存在。有必要对学生贷款债务和社会工作参与进行更多基于社会工作的实证研究,以促进利用经济正义视角的批判性对话。讨论了对社会工作实践、政策和研究的影响。
