Current work on endorsement of community work education and training being undertaken by a working group of practitioners and educators seeks to build on All Ireland Standards for Community Work, published in 2016.
The All Ireland Standards clearly outlines the knowledge, skills and practice principles for quality community work and seeks to recognise and underpin community work and its ethos in promoting change. Its purpose is to provide a framework for community work in the context of economic, social and cultural developments in Irish society and to capture the richness and multidimensionality of community work in an increasingly diverse Ireland.
