| Research Abstract |
To develop a practice model which functonally ties international and mutlticultural social work together, qualtitative research on Filipino migrant workers was conducted in Japan, the Philippines and Hong Kong. The results showed the effectiveness of participatory action research for facilitating self-help programs of migrant workers as well as empowerment of both individuals and the group as a whole. It also suggested importance of forming an association of individual self-help groups.
