Research Abstract |
The goal of the research for 1999 was to solidify the framework far sorting and analyzing the data. Based on the discusion and analysis of the data gathered in the past two years, we set the framework as follows: 1. Social work values, 2. Social work knowledge, and 3. Social work methods (skills). For values, knowledge, and skills, we identified elements which are related to 1) social work in general, and 2) culture specific. The research results are reported as follows: 1. Socio-cultural and Economic contexts and the need far developing cross-cultural social work study in Japan, 2. Supports provided by NGOs; 3. Supports provided by social work professionals; 4. Supports developed in the community groups; 5. Cross-cultural social services in US and Canada; and 6. Multicultural social work curriculum in US and Canada, and Future task and recommendations for developing cross-cultural and multicultural social work curriculum in Japan. Research outcomes are as follows: 1) The values, knowledge, and skills used in NGOs are very much similar to those developed within the framework of social work education; 2) Experience as a minority in another culture is found to be one of most useful knowledge and skills in providing support to non-Japanese clients; and 3) Social workers who do not have cross-cultural experience are also providing support to non-Japanese clients regardless of race or nationality and they acquired their practice bases from Japanese social work education.
