“Human Rights: Its Meaning and Practice in Social Work Field Settings.”
The journal discussed human rights and issues that social workers see on a daily basis through a study that involved 35 students studying to be a social worker and 48 supervisors. Their responses were recorded and they described scenarios such as dealing with clients who struggle with poverty, domestic abuse, discrimination, etc,. They discussed these scenarios and the possible victims in these situations. They discussed that the social working code "requires social workers within the United States to respect dignity and worth of the people." Regardless of who you are or what your social class is, everyone deserves to be treated with dignity. Your situation does not define you. The journal was able to make real life connections with the student's responses. It was useful because a lot of the scenarios are scenarios that exist. The journal gave great advice and gave in depth explanations that were useful. The journal was credible for the reason that not only did it have 5 authors that collaborated to gather responses and create a journal published in 2017 , but it was able to make real life connections. It was not just listing random situations. It listed situations that social workers face on a daily basis. Overall, it gave me great advice. I thought it to be a really great idea to conduct the study using students and supervisors who are studying or are already in the career that I have chosen to pursue because it was something I can one day relate back to.
