Season 3, Ep. 5
•
In this episode, we speak with Melisa Campana Albarce about social work education in the Southern Cone of Latin America. We explore the region’s distinctive traditions of social work, the influence of the Reconceptualisation Movement, and how experiences of dictatorship, political struggle and social inequality continue to shape the profession. The conversation also considers what these histories can teach social work educators today about critical, politically engaged and contextually grounded education.
