Social Work in Crises - Reseach, Education and Dissemination
Digitalizing & Archiving History of Lebanese Social Work in Crisis Contexts with SWorld
SWorld, founded by Aimée Ghanem and supported by the ThRIvE project, is a digital research and knowledge platform that documents the history and evolution of social work in Lebanon while opening new perspectives. With a digital archive, publications such as “Social Work in the Face of Crises and Disasters”, and a daily mini-series on YouTube and the Beirut Banyan Podcast, SWorld creates space for intergenerational dialogue and critical reflection.
The platform highlights how social work responds to crises – and empowers people to shape sustainable, positive change.
We Care Club - Social Work Club Libanon
The International Social Work Clubs are communities where students and professionals in social work connect theory and practice through shared learning. They empower members by fostering self-care, confidence, and emotional intelligence, while building international networks for growth and collaboration.
An inspiring example is the We Care Club in Lebanon, which originated within the ThRIvE-Project, where students create a safe and supportive space guided by the social work code of ethics. Through dialogue, awareness events, and community engagement, the club promotes personal and professional development and highlights the vital role of social work in society.
