Welcome to read the report on the activities of the EEsrASSW and its members in 2020: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear all, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It has been a difficult time,\nthe year of 2020. Not being able to meet and to share at conferences and\ninternational teaching visits impacted the communication. In the first part of\nthe year 2020 several members of the EEsrASSW share their experiences about the\nfirst lockdown. Some of the stories were reported and put on-line. The National\nAssociation of Social Workers from Moldova wrote a call for social workers and\neducators to share good practice during Covid-19 (see our web site). Colleagues\nfrom University of Kosova, Vilnius University, UBB, Cluj, Romania, University\nof Zagreb, School of Social work, and colleagues from Greece schools of social\nwork and University of Columbus shared their early experiences during the first\nlockdown in March 2020. Their experiences were similar in terms of teaching\nremoved on-line, difficulties that elders experienced in institutions; students\nwho experienced anxiety and uncertainties and some people who remained\nforgotten (homeless people and Roma people). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In August 2020 the members of\nthe South East Women Academic Leadership meet on ZOOM and shared their\nexperiences and plans for the future work. Some of them work on a book on Human\nrights and social work edited by Vjollca Krasniqi and Jane McPherson. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A webinar on practice\nplacements experiences during pandemic was planned by Sanela Ba\u0161i\u0107 (University\nof Sarajevo) but needed to be cancelled and is now postponed up to February\n2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Board meeting in\nAugust 2020, the President of the EASSW, initiated a discussion on the\nrelations between regional associations in different continents. In Europe, we\nhave the EASSW and the Nordic Region of the Schools of Social Work (both with\npaid membership) and the East European sub-regional association (no membership\nfee). In the period of economic bottlenecks in universities, many educators are\nfaced with the growing difficulty of paying to various social work\nassociations, in Europe in particular the EASSW and IASSW. For this reason, I\nasked the members of the EEsrASSW for their opinion. The consultation process\nwas very lively and many people responded. It turned out that this issue is a\nconcern for many of them. Educators from 11 East European countries sent in\ntheir responses, in total there were 15 responses. The main summary points were\nthe following: <\/p>\n\n\n\n

-payments to international\norganisations for more than one membership are a burden on the budgets of\nschools and universities; <\/p>\n\n\n\n

-some\neducators are confused about which association they belong to and have paid\nmembership and therefore do not benefit from what they could get from the\nsocial work association; <\/p>\n\n\n\n

-payment is often arbitrary,\nsome years the University\/school pays for the EASSW and another year for the\nIASSW and people are not properly informed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All responses strongly\nexpressed the view that joint membership <\/strong>would promote identification\nwith the Association, increase potential members\u2019 activities and increase the\nuse of online documents and resources. We informed the president Teresa\nBertotti and suggested that on behalf of the EEsrASSW she raises the issue with\nthe EASSW and IASSW in the future meetings in order to possibly work towards a\ncommon membership. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
