    SOCIAL WORK EDUCATION in EUROPE: CURRENT CHALLENGES and DEVELOPMENTS 16th and 17th of February 2012 International Seminar/Kocaeli University Umuttepe Campus, İzmit/Kocaeli-Turkey Rationale of the project The history of social work education in Turkey started in the mid’s of 1950’s after the World War II with the organized support of UN like in many other European countries. Until the mid of 2000’s social work education could not be developed at nationwide. There was a single school providing social work education between 1961 and 2003. In 2004 second school established again in Ankara, the capital city of Turkey. After 2004, an important developmental period has been started by the governments under the effect of EU process and social work education immediately started in 15 universities. This immediate changes in social work education caused quality problems and emerged a new structure which indicates a urgent need for developing nationwide standarts for social work education such as basic qualification of social work academicians, standartization of social work curriculums and basic requirements for field practices. Today, social work academicians in Turkey are trying to find appropriate ways to answer structural problems such as: Positions of social work departments in the university structure, effective ways to teach social work in rapidly changing society, training social workers with necessary skills, need to increase the number of graduate programs in social work and to integrate theories into the practice. In this transition period, it is important to create connections between European and Turkish social work schools to strength cooperation and facilitate transfer of knowledge.

No. 49/11, Kızılay 06420 Ankara, Turkey Phone: +90 (312) 310 66 36 ▪ Fax: +90 (312) 310 64 63 [email protected] ▪ http://www.tihv.org.tr HRFT Academy [email protected] ▪ http://www.tihvakademi.org/ This report is part of HRFT’s ongoing project “Supporting Academics as a Human Rights Actor in a Challenging Context,” funded by the European Commission’s European Instrument for Democracy and Human Rights (EIDHR) Turkey Programme. Its content is the sole responsibility of HRFT and can in no way be regarded as reflecting the views of the European Union. Preface This report is part of a broader research project currently in progress.* Conducted by the Human Rights Foundation of Turkey (HRFT), the research is meant to explore the recent crackdown on Turkish universities and the destruction of the academic environment. The present report focuses on a special episode of that story, namely, the case of Academics for Peace. Turkish government declared a national state of emergency immediately after the failed coup in June 2016. Yet, universities were already in a de facto state of emergency that started with the case of Academics for Peace and the by now internationally well-known “Peace Petition,” released on January 11, 2016. What came to happen after the petition was a lynch campaign that lasted for months to silence and oppress its signatories. Academics who signed the petition were exposed to a variety of rights violations by political authorities and with the involvement of various agents, including university administrators, colleagues, public prosecutors, security forces, pro-government press and aggressive nationalist groups.
