Course Descriptions

As natural and urban disasters have occurred increasingly frequently in the past decades, greater attention has been devoted to the lack of preparation among social workers to intervene effectively and offer help to survivors of these disasters. The aims of this course are to increase knowledge of different types of disasters ranging from personal disasters and to enhance understanding of the social and psychological impact, and also students will obtain knowledge of selected intervention models/approaches for effective assessment and intervention with individuals and their families affected by disasters.
