Public ISBD [article]  inThe british journal of social work > 36/3 (avril 2006) . - pp. 381-399 Titre : An "Ecospiritual" Perspective : Finally, a Place for Indigenous Approaches Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : John Coates, Auteur ; Mel Gray, Auteur ; Hetherington Tiani, Auteur Editeur : Oxford : Oxford university press - GB - Oxford Année de publication : 2006 Article en page(s) : pp. 381-399 Langues : Français (fre) Catégories : Cardijn Travail social TS Diversité culturelle # Écologie Mots-clés : Travail social  Diversité culturelle  Ecologie Résumé : "Despite holding significant roles in providing social services to First Nations or indigenous communities, social work has been reluctant to accept indigenous perspectives and traditional forms of helping and healing. Most often, social workers have operated within the dominant paradigms that, despite efforts to the contrary, have primarily imposed Western social work beliefs and practices which have been unable to effectively accommodate diversity. This paper argues that the recent attention to the importance of the environment and spirituality, and the paradigmatic shift that such issues require, has created a welcoming space for indigenous voices. Such acceptance has opened the opportunity for the profession to benefit not only from a genuine exchange among cultures, but also from a re-thinking of the foundational beliefs of the social work profession."
