After successfully completing this module, students will be able to:
- methodically design offers based on needs and requirements,
- debate the methods (development) of social work with regard to the respective needs and taking into account the (global) social context,
- take a self-confident position on human rights as the starting point for the (development of) methods in social work, as well as
- as well as on the idea of contributing to a (global) social development that leads to social justice,
- take a critical stance on the offerings of social work from this normative standpoint,
- justify the choices they made in their own methodological proposal development.
