Welcome to the redesigned and updated GO Global Social Work webpage!
Initially, we developed this webpage to communicate and share our adventure on the Semester at Sea 2019 Spring voyage. Now, under the Journey section of the webpage, we continue to share thoughts and photos from our travels. As well, we write about travel as a lifestyle. We look forward to, post-Coronavirus, new adventures and connections as we explore the world.
We expanded the GOGlobalSW page to include commentary and thoughts, from a global social work perspective, about current issues. We provide reflections “as the mood hits us.” These observations are under the Reflection section of the webpage.
In addition, we started a scholarship at Western Kentucky University. The GO Global Scholarship supports social work students in international learning experiences. We will post about recipients of the scholarship. We invite you to support social work students by contributing to the scholarship. The Scholarship section of the webpage includes a link for more information and to donate, if interested.
We also invite you to follow us on Twitter (@GOGlobalSW). When we share a new entry on the webpage, we will post it on Twitter. If you wish to receive an email with our latest posts, please contact us at goglobalsw@gmail.com.
Social work is a life-changing profession. We advocate a meta-practice paradigm, which includes promoting an international perspective that contributes to positive and systemic world change. Join us as we explore the world through thought-provoking reflections, human connections, and diverse global perspectives. GO Global!
