研究実績の概要 |
This research studies indigenous social work internationally. Indigenous people like the Ainu in Japan face various social problems. The purpose of the research is to examine and compare the historical and theoretical evolution of indigenous knowledge-based models of social work around the globe. To achieve the research objective, data collection focuses on two areas: (1) historical development of indigenous social work models, especially their introduction; and (2) theoretical development of indigenous social work models, especially indigenous knowledge-based theories. The main method for data collection is a cyclic dialogue between literature survey and field survey. Literature survey before field entry is concerned with already existing information. Literature review is being carried out; however, field surveys are not possible due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Preparations were made for online surveys and an online symposium on the subject. These include the accumulation of knowledge and know-how on online conference management and online interviewing. Also, relationships were nurtured with potential contact persons for future online implementation through various international platforms such as conferences and joint research projects, mainly related to the COVID-19 pandemic. These will be utilized in the next phase of the study.

理由
The main reason for the delay is the COVID-19 pandemic and related restrictions on international and domestic travel for field work purposes. International field surveys that were planned for 2020 and rescheduled 2021 had to be rescheduled again for further dates. Based on experiences gained in other joint international research projects, online research methods are being considered as feasible alternatives if the global status of the pandemic does not improve with vaccination. Therefore, online interviews will be carried out accordingly to partially replace fieldwork. Also, an online symposium is being considered as a partial substitute to in-person exchanges with international researchers and stakeholders on the subject.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
Future plans include working together with a team of international stakeholders to conduct online interviews and the organization of an online symposium on the research topic. Planned online interviews target relevant agencies and key persons, as well as professionals to learn about models of indigenous social work and their historical development in Asian and European countries. A possible online symposium would focus on the same issues globally with country reports by national stakeholders, and efforts are being made to work in partnership with the newly formed Indigenous Commission of the International Federation of Social Workers (IFSW) to identify cases of indigenous knowledge-based good practice.

次年度使用額が生じた理由 |
The main reason is the COVID-19 pandemic and related travel restrictions. International field surveys and conference attendances in person that were planned for 2020 had to be cancelled. With regard to the former, rescheduling is an option depending on the international state of vaccination, however online options such as online interviews or an online symposium is also being considered. In the latter case, online symposium management such as technical and interpretation cost will be added to the budget. With regard to conference participation, when online attendance is possible, no additional cost are anticipated.
