Social Work History Network
@socwkhistory.bsky.social
Social Work History Network was established in London in 2000. It is an informal network of social workers, academics, historians, archivists and others.
This was a notable decline in attendance since the first annual conference in 1928, a result of the challenges faced by the profession because of the Great Depression that started in 1929.
