Synopsis

What are the patterns of male and female poverty? What is the difference between trafficking and migration as a free decision of a woman? What is the importance of gender in professional social work with multicultural groups? How should we address issues of sexuality and love in gender-conscious youth work? What are the gender aspects of developing/preventing addictions and responding to counselling and therapy? Do the professional motivations for me and women in social work differ? Does this result in a gender-based hierarchical structure? Are there gender-specific assumptions in social workers' perceptions of clients? Are boys and girls treated in the same way by social services?
