Ten social work agency directors and practitioners from China came to UNO for special training on social service delivery systems. Between July 18 and August 1, the trainees participated in group discussions, lectures, and cross-cultural learning activities on campus and at local social service agencies.
The goal was to expose the leaders to Omaha best practices, so that they could apply them back in China. The leaders shared that they were impressed with UNO’s Community Engagement Center, and how nice it would be to have something similar in China.
The Grace Abbott School of Social Work sponsored the training with co-trainers Drs. Peter Szto and Jieru Bai.
