SWK8055 Advanced Social Work Practice with Diverse Populations in Complex Systems
In this course, learners examine concepts and theories related to diversity, such as critical race theory, through the lenses of complex systems, globalization, and the impact of technology. Learners evaluate systems as entities of social control, domination, and oppression in order to develop advocacy strategies for meaningful systems change and to apply practices that effectively address diversity. Learners also assess the impact of globalization and immigration on vulnerable populations and human needs, along with strategies to address these issues, including the use of technology to advance welfare and well-being for all. For DSW learners only.
