The digital world is no longer a refuge from the impositions of reality but is closely linked to it. This has been made possible by technical achievements that not only make everyday life much easier but also enable digital participation. What role can, must and may social work play here? The course aims to empower social workers to discover and develop digitalised room to manoeuvre.

Course contents

• Digitalisation - backgrounds, dimensions, opportunities and risks
• Best-practice examples from social work
• Current tools and trends to try out
• Data protection and professional- role design
