IFSW Africa

Social Work has a long history in Africa stemming back to pre-colonial times.  The region now comprises 25 IFSW members who are working toward the establishment of a recognised social work profession association in all the region’s countries, and the visibility of the profession’s contributions in addressing the complex factors of poverty, HIV eradication, gender equality and self-led community empowerment.
