Rating
Format
Paperback, 286 pages
Published
United Kingdom, 12 March 2019


Understanding Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, and how best to work with them, is an essential component of all Social Work programmes in Australia as courses commit to working respectfully for increased social justice, health and wellbeing for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. This core textbook is written specifically for the Australian market and has enjoyed strong sales but now requires updating to ensure we maintain and grow sales.


Our Voices was the first social work book published in Australia that has an all Aboriginal Australian editorial group and it explores important contemporary issues such as cultural supervision, working with communities, understanding trauma, collaboration and relationship building. It provides valuable insights into how social work practice can be developed, taught and practiced in ways that are culturally safe and competent.

Reviews

This is a very important book which will have a major influence on social work education and practice. It is a landmark publication in that it is the first book of this type in Australian social work. The authors and editors are to be congratulated on their achievement.
*Jim Ife, Emeritus Professor, Centre for Human Rights Education, Curtin University, Western Australia*

Informative, engaging and most of all challenging, Our Voices provides essential knowledge for Australian social workers and social work students. This new edition expands and updates these important arguments, confirming its place as required reading for social work practitioners and students.
*Richard Hugman, Professor of Social Work, University of New South Wales, Australia*

This is a powerful book that challenges social workers to think critically, ask the difficult questions, debate the contentious issues, and walk the talk of social justice and equality by drawing from ancient knowledge. This book should be required reading for all social workers in Australia and, indeed, around the globe. – Raven Sinclair, Professor of Social Work, University of Regina (Saskatoon), Canada
