Welcome
to the 13th International University Week
“Social Work in Changing Times”
Hochschule Bremen’s School of Social Work will be hosting one of the four 13th International University Weeks during April 3rd – 8th 2011.
The organizing team kindly invites social work students from all European countries as well as university teachers to participate within this international program. We especially call for participation of universities within our SocNet98 network but also would like to encourage students, researchers, lecturers and social workers from other backgrounds to be part of this week.
The IUW 2011 will focus on different aspects of social work in our current societies and changing times. Changes in society, culture, social policy, profession, life span, methodology and many other areas challenge us to make up our minds and look for adequate concepts and decisions. Under the umbrella topic of change, this IUW includes workshops, field-related excursions as well as social activities and offers a chance to visit Bremen and the north west of Germany. Currently we calculate to invite about 50 visiting and 50 local students as well as about 15 lecturers for workshops.
Program highlights will include:
- A welcome café for the students and lecturers that arrive already on Sunday evening
- A two days workshop program (lecturers from universities and practical social work)
- Excursions to social work institutions
- An organised excursion trip some highlights of Bremen
- Time to spend in the city of Bremen
- Parties and cultural program
- Good food
- Nice people
- Enough time to meet each other
We are looking forward to meet you in Bremen.
