Design and implementation of project management in Social Work practice

Project Report from the year 2013 in the subject Social Work, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Frankfurt am Main, course: International Social Work, language: English, abstract: The profession of Social Work is permanently evolving and its employees have to face and overcome new challenges on a daily basis. Changing environmental conditions, new needs and social problems of the clientele as well as economic competition and the reduction of fi- nancial resources have lead to the fact that goals, contents and methods have to be rearranged. Furthermore the process of professionalization demands an increase of empirical knowledge in the daily practice of Social Workers, making it necessary to replace ideological convictions with empiricism.
