Capability Level: Emerging and Evolving
From addressing the multifaceted social determinants of health to fostering resilient communities and networks of support, social prescribing and social work converge to redefine health, well-being, and societal prosperity.
This webinar explores diverse models of social prescribing, with a focus on how social work serves as a pivotal element in countries like Holland and Austria, contrasted with the UK’s council-led approach with a more diverse workforce. It aims to dissect the integration of social work within social prescribing, from primary healthcare to community building, and its applicability in enhancing Australian social work practices and systemic integration.
The session will cover theoretical frameworks and practical applications of social prescribing, examining international methodologies, training, and practices. It will highlight recent advancements from the social prescribing roundtable, aiming to provide actionable insights for integrating these global perspectives into Australian social work.
