Social Work

ATINER is organizing a Special Session on “Social Work” as part of the 18^th Annual International Conference on Sociology, 6-9 May 2024, Athens, Greece sponsored by the Athens Journal of Social Sciences.

We invite academics and researchers to submit their original contributions, focusing on the critical intersections and advancements within the field of social work. This session seeks to bring together diverse perspectives and innovative ideas that address contemporary challenges, share best practices, and explore new horizons in social work research and practice.

You may participate as presenter of one session or observer.

Please submit an abstract (by email only) to: atiner@atiner.gr, using the abstract submission form by 26 March 2024 to: Dr. Ian Hyslop Senior Lecturer University of Auckland New Zealand. Abstracts should include the following details: Title of Paper, Full Name (s), Affiliation, Current Position, an email address, and at least 3 keywords that best describe the subject of your submission. Decisions are reached within 4 weeks.

Fee structure information is available on www.atiner.gr/fees.

Special arrangements will be made with a local hotel for a limited number of rooms at a special conference rate. In addition, a number of special events will be organized which give a great opportunity to further discuss the issues presented at the conference. From ATINER’s long experience these events bring together scholars from different countries and disciplines which may result to research collaborations and joint publications. These events include a pragmatic symposium (as organized in Ancient Athens but fine-tuned to synchronous ethics), a special one-day educational island tour, a Mycenae and island of Poros visit, an Athens educational walking tour, a day trip to Delphi, and an ancient Corinth and Cape Sounion visit. Details of the social program are available here.
