  • Descrição: Japanese social work/welfare education has been developing since the 1920s and has already reached a relatively high educational standard. It has also been helping to produce successful certified social workers through the state certification system since 1987. It finds itself facing a number of challenges. Fewer social workers are graduating, turnover rates are higher than those of other professions, and there is still an insufficient social recognition of the value of social work as a profession. The author briefly reviews the history of Japanese social work/welfare education, examines the current issues in the discipline, and indicates future challenges. The quality of Japanese social work/welfare education has improved, which has helped its promotion as a profession in the traditional welfare fields, but it must also foster new types of social workers who can work with globalization issues and assure the quality of life of marginalized people in Japan. Educators, researchers, and scholars have to address social changes in cooperation with people in various areas of responsibility, rather than focusing entirely on improving the quality of education. Our priority should be to build a working environment for social workers who have enjoyed a high-quality education that allows them to make the most of what they have, and make them united in their commitment to social changes.
