“…It has tremendous potential, but as predicted by European social pedagogues, presents a direct challenge to powerful neo-liberal ideologies in UK education, health and social care (Coussée et al, 2010;Lorenz, 2008). However, social pedagogy is a non-pathologizing, well-established, empowering and emancipatory way of working with children and young people.…”

The experiences of non-disabled children growing up with a sibling with an intellectual disability vary considerably, with reported impact ranging from increased mental health problems through evaluations of life enhancement. However, there is evidence that the net impact is neutral to positive, which was supported by the findings of this report of a service evaluation survey. The value of providing support to those young siblings is however clear. An established method of support is within a group of peers who also have a sibling with an intellectual disability, though no specific method for running this type of group has yet been fully explored. This article reports the views of 39 children taking part in such a group, analysing their perspective through a proposed model for the operation of sibling groups: social pedagogy. It was found that the closer the group's activities were to social pedagogy, the more supported the children and young people felt.

The article investigates and describes essence of social work with personnel and draws some conclusions based on a new approach to defining social work with personnel, describes scientific and theoretical foundations of the concept of social work with personnel in the organization and its main elements. It focuses on methodological foundations and identifies main elements of the methodological base of social work with personnel, defines its subjects, objects, target, goals and tasks. This study is also devoted to analysis of conformity of social work with personnel within natural laws and examines general and specific principles of social work with personnel, its general functions (ethical, prognostication, preventive, communication) and concrete functions (social security, social aid, social services, social insurance). It classifies methods of social work with personnel based on such indications as direction and forms, objects and subjects of social work. The article also deals with means of social work with personnel and describes its technologies, identifying differences between traditional general technologies (social diagnostics, social examination, social foresight, communication skills, public regulations, skills, social insurance, social adaptation, social counseling, social security), special technologies (used when dealing with workers having very young children or large families, elderly or young workers applying for a job for the first time, disabled workers) and innovation technologies. It also defines essence of management and organization of social work with personnel. The main result of the study is a proposed methodological concept of social work with personnel in the organization representing the content of the given notion.

“…The dictum presents many opportunities and challenges for contemporary social work, as did the debilitating social problems arising from industrialisation and urbanisation that gave birth to social work as a profession and academic discipline dictated by a desire to maintain social order (Lorenz, 2008;Payne, 2005). As a human service profession, social work in its current Eurocentric form cannot afford to remain aloof from the pertinent and pressing question of its appropriateness and relevance in responding to local social problems confronting black Africans (Brydon, 2011:156;Gray, 2005;Sewpaul, 2005).…”
