About Social Work Nigeria

Social Work Nigeria serves as a professional learning and development platform dedicated to enhancing ethical, skilled, and culturally relevant social work practice throughout Nigeria and the Global South.

We offer CPD-accredited courses, mentorship, and hands-on training for social workers, students, caregivers, educators, and organisations involved with children, families, and vulnerable groups.

Our work is rooted in social justice, human rights, safeguarding, and evidence-based practice, connecting local realities with global standards.

Why Social Work Nigeria

Social Work Nigeria is a professional learning and capacity-building platform committed to strengthening ethical, skilled, and contextually relevant social work practice across Nigeria and the Global South.

Our work is grounded in the realities of practice, supporting individuals and organisations working with children, families, and vulnerable adults in settings where access to formal training, supervision, and continuing professional development is often limited.

 

We bridge the gap between everyday practice challenges and globally recognised social work principles, ensuring learning is practical, culturally responsive, and safeguarding-focused.

We place strong emphasis on ethics, professional accountability, and human rights, equipping practitioners and organisations to work safely, responsibly, and with confidence.

Learning is delivered in accessible and flexible formats, allowing professionals to engage in development alongside demanding roles and responsibilities.

Beyond structured courses, Social Work Nigeria provides mentorship and reflective practice clinics that support ongoing learning, ethical decision-making, and professional resilience.

By working with both individuals and organisations, we support sustainable improvements in practice quality and safeguarding standards.
