Join us as the U-M School of Social Work Glocal Village celebrates the exceptional academic work of social work students through a showcase of students’ research, academic, field experiences, and creative projects.  

Inspired by the theme of this year’s World Social Work Day, “Co-building a New Eco-Social World: Leaving No One Behind," the U-M SSW is hosting its first annual Glocal Village Event to provide an opportunity for students to share the results of their field experiences, research, and creative academic activities that use a global lens. 

Students are invited to present on projects and experiences that have a global focus and are inspired by the World Social Work Day theme. Participation is open to all MSW and PhD students.

Presenters and attendees may count their participation as field hours with the approval of their field instructor. Please be sure to include the learning activities associated with the conference in your justifications on the educational agreement.
