Social work as a profession in India

The Social Work Training Act, passed by the Indian government in 1948, acknowledged social work as a professional subject and promoted the creation of training facilities all over the nation. The development of social work as a profession in India was aided by this statute.

Since that time, social work has developed further in India as a result of the country's shifting social and economic conditions. In India nowadays, social workers can be found in a variety of places, such as government offices, hospitals, schools, and prisons. Additionally, they work with a variety of demographic groups, such as children, young adults, women, the elderly, and those with impairments.

Some of the key milestones in the evolution of social work as a profession in India:

✓ 1936: Establishment of the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS).

✓ 1948: Social Work Training Act is passed.

✓ 1951: Indian Association of Social Workers (IASW) is founded.

✓ 1962: National Council for Social Work Education (NCSWE) is established.

✓ 1984: National Policy on Education (NPE) recognizes social work as a profession.

✓ 2000: National Curriculum Framework for Social Work Education is developed.

✓ 2015: National Policy on Social Work is released.
