Students from USRN member universities are invited to join Al-Farabi Kazakh National University’s international summer school programme on ‘Diversity and Social Justice in Social Work Research, Practice and Education’ from 27–31 May 2019. The programme enabled students and professionals in social work and human service-related fields to explore the meanings, practices and implications of social work from the perspectives of diversity and social justice. Participants engaged in lectures, small group discussions, agency and organisation visits, cultural tours and informal interactions. They learned about issues and challenges encountered by social workers as well as corresponding innovative responses to those concerns.
