The 5 ECTS Summer School (alternating between Warsaw and Paris Nanterre) focuses on ‘Innovations in the field of social intervention’. It aims to provide a forum where students, researchers and practitioners can discuss and understand the concept of innovation in the field of social work from different perspectives in order to understand how to develop social work practice. The module includes considerable exposure to non-academic settings through fieldtrips to local social services as well as presentations in class by practitioners and visiting scholars. Based on experience from the present programme the module 7 Summer School has been extended from two to three weeks to allow time for lectures, field visits and discussions among students, practitioners, researchers and academics.
