The International Association of Schools of Social Work and the European Association of Schools of Social Work have awarded the Joint Research Grant 2026 to a truly meaningful and timely project:
“Poverty in Central and Southeast Europe: Social Policy and Social Work Responses”
This work brings together passionate researchers and institutions from across Europe, all committed to better understanding poverty and strengthening the ways social work and policy can respond to it.
What makes this especially inspiring is the spirit of collaboration behind it — universities across multiple countries working together, sharing knowledge, and building solutions that can make a real difference in people’s lives.
Congratulations to the entire research team for this well-deserved recognition. We look forward to seeing the impact of your work!
