About the Book

"Fieldwork in Social Work Education" is a pioneering work by Iqbal S. Subhedar that addresses a crucial yet often overlooked aspect of social work education: the concept and practice of fieldwork. While fieldwork is considered an integral part of social work education by schools of social work, it often remains only a peripheral activity due to its vague conceptualization in many institutions. This book provides a detailed exploration of fieldwork, offering both theoretical and practical insights to make it a core component of social work training.

The book is designed to help teachers, students, and practitioners bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-life practice. It emphasizes the need for the application of social work methods through practice, helping individuals and communities in need of professional intervention. The work also aims to cultivate the right attitudes, skills, and conceptualization capabilities for effective social work.

This comprehensive guide will be an essential resource for students, researchers, academicians, and planners involved in social work education and practice.
