One of the main goals of social work is to promote social justice, social rights and social inclusion. In this course, we will explore social justice in a global perspective, which addresses injustices caused by global processes such as economic globalization, foreign investments, movement of labour, migration, environment, peace and conflicts, and more.

We will apply various theoretical perspectives, concepts and approaches to social justice. The course will also focus on rights and legal perspectives related to social justice. By reverting to, among others, human rights law, the students will be given a tool to identify and to address, both theoretically and practically, social injustice. Furthermore, the course will explore how we can apply such perspectives and approaches to social work practice and social policies in a global context in order to promote social justice. This course aims to create an in-depth understanding of social justice and inspire to counter social injustices that occur because of historical, economic or other hierarchies.
