Th e ADVANCES program, which integrates the theories and practices that were formerly approached separately in social work, creates a context for the European (and, by extension, international) status of social work, while its respective components, such as the experience of social work institutions and their benefi ciaries, contribute a new, global value to the discussion by demonstrating the 'diverse universe' of helping professions off ers.
