PEACE FOR HUMANITY

Hi friends,

Peace is the prerequisite for the survival of society as we know it in the 21st century. It lies at the centre of being able to manage humanity’s many and varied challenges, simply because peace creates the optimum environment in which the other activities that contribute to human growth can take place. But the structure, causes and value of peace need to be better understood. Research that has been undertaken has lead to new and intriguing ways of analysing peace spanning from analysing the impact of peace on sustainability, defining the “Peace Industry”, estimating the value of peace to the world economy, and uncovering the social structures and social attitudes that are at the core of peaceful societies.
Causes & Value of PeaceThe latest examination into the causes and economic value of peace includes three distinct types of analysis: a statistical investigation of the entire GPI database to uncover the structure, causes and value of peace is followed by an analysis of cross-national attitude surveys on a variety of social issues and how they relate to peace. Thirdly, a conservative estimate of the economic worth of the cessation of violence to the world is presented.
Business & Peace
Peace is a powerful concept. However, the notion of peace and its value in the world economy is not well understood. One of the key findings of the Global Peace Index was that there is a strong relationship between peace, business and national wealth.
Sustainability & Peace
Peace and sustainability are the cornerstones of humanity's survival in the 21st century. The major challenges facing humanity today are global – climate change, lack of fresh water, ever decreasing bio-diversity and over population.

Social Work

Hi friends,
I  am very much glad to write this artical on Social work.When you have started about thinking what is social work?.What does it mean??.Do I am able to social work?.such question may arise in your mind.
So let us have a look at social work.
Social work is both a profession and social science. It involves the application of social theory and research methods to study and improve the lives of people, groups, and societies. It incorporates and uses other social sciences as a means to improve the human condition and positively change society's response to chronic problems.
Social work is a profession committed to the pursuit of social justice, to the enhancement of the quality of life, and to the development of the full potential of each individual, group and community in the society. It seeks to simultaneously address and resolve social issues at every level of society and economic status, but especially among the poor and sick.
Social workers are concerned with social problems, their causes, their solutions and their human impacts. They work with individuals, families, , organization and communities.
Social work and human history go together. Social work was always in human societies although it began to be a defined pursuit and profession in the 19th century. This definition was in response to societal problems that resulted from the Industrial Revolution and an increased interest in applying scientific theory to various aspects of study. Eventually an increasing number of educational institutions began to offer social work programmes.
The settlement movement's emphasis on advocacy and case work became part of social work practice. During the 20th century, the profession began to rely more on research and evidenced-based practice as it attempted to improve its professionalism. Today social workers are employed in a myriad of pursuits and settings.
Professional social workers are generally considered those who hold a professional degree in social work and often also have a license or are professionally registered. Social workers have organized themselves into local, national, and international professional bodies to further the aims of the profession.
