Who we are
Social Workers Without Borders is a social work charity working for migration justice. We believe social workers should work in solidarity with people impacted by borders. We mobilise a network of social workers and social work students to practice in a way that is rights-based, upholding the inherent dignity, worth and humanity of every person.
Social Workers Without Borders provide independent social work reports for people impacted by immigration policy, this includes children, families and adults. Most of our reports concern children’s welfare and we are frequently instructed to give expert evidence for immigration decisions that could separate families.
Our culture and values
Social Workers Without Borders (SWWB) was established for the public benefit to relieve need and to promote the physical and mental health of refugees, asylum seekers and migrants in the UK and internationally by:
• Providing excellent social work services
• Promoting excellence in social work practice and developing a model of social work practice with refugees, asylum seekers and migrants
• Providing education and training to social workers and others working with refugees, asylum seekers and migrants
