Despite a mandate to include human rights and social justice content in the social work curriculum, food insecurity and food justice receive scant attention in social work academia. Food insecurity affects a substantial portion of the population, with a disproportionate impact on women and Black, Latinx, and Native American communities. A human rights-based approach to food requires more than access to food; it demands that food also be available, adequate, and culturally acceptable. A right to food framework also calls on policymakers to immediately address disparities in food security, which are prevalent in the USA due to historical and ongoing systemic racism. This paper provides a conceptual understanding of food justice and its historical connections to social work, outlines the requirements of a right to food, and concludes by offering strategies to integrate food justice into the micro, mezzo, and macro social work curriculum.</p>","PeriodicalId":15919,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights and Social Work","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2024-02-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139677627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study uses inductive methodology for analysis grounded on secondary data and literature review. The secondary data is drawn from publicly available reports of national and international agencies. Findings of the study suggested economic and labour reforms played a considerable role in contractulisation of work and followed by the adverse impact on labour rights and dignity of work. Extensive use of contractual labour has led to massive devaluation in working conditions, making worker’s situations highly vulnerable and informal caused by non-attendance of labour rights.

Thematic analysis generated six themes: knowledge is power, empathy and communication, utilizing media platforms, professional development, awareness of diversity, and growth areas.

Stakeholders of global and regional governance express concerns for populations who had to flee their residential homelands, whereas stateless people are generally excluded. Typically, refugees with recognized legal nationalities have been the predominant focus of the international community. However, following Myanmar’s military attack against the Rohingya and their subsequent forced relocation in August 2017, international organizations as well as the US government openly criticized the Myanmar government for violent attacks that were labeled as “crimes against humanity,” “genocide,” and “ethnic cleansing.” In the case of the Rohingya, the statelessness status became an additional aspect of a violation of human rights. The authors analyzed the state of global governance in regard to the Rohingya Crisis with constructivist framework which focuses on multiple perspectives among stakeholders.

Research has consistently shown the positive effects of higher education level on lifetime earnings. Financing to achieve this can lead to student loan debt, which has become a crisis affecting financial and health wellbeing among some borrowers and disparities in higher education access further exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite the fact that access to higher education has been deemed a right in Article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the student loan crisis threatens access for some. Lack of ratification of the document by the U.S. further pushes the need for critical discussion. Therefore, the purpose of this narrative review was to examine the state of the student loan debt crisis and raise implications for policy. WorldCat, SocINDEX, and Academic Search Complete databases were searched utilizing a combination of key words associated with college student loans and debt, economic justice. Findings showed student loan debt, repayment challenges, and inequities in higher education access remain widespread. There is a need for more social work–based empirical research on student loan debt and social work engagement that promotes critical conversations utilizing an economic justice perspective. Implications for social work practice, policy, and research are discussed.</p>","PeriodicalId":15919,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Rights and Social Work","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2023-12-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138519518","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
