Following the 2023 earthquakes in Turkey, data were collected through in-depth interviews. Findings indicate that women faced serious disadvantages in access to basic needs, privacy, and personal security due to gender-based inequalities. Their most urgent needs involved social assistance and psychosocial support, as intensified traditional gender roles increased psychological burden and limited coping capacities. Many women entered the workforce for the first time and engaged in household decision-making, while employed participants reported enhanced empowerment. These findings emphasize the importance of gender-responsive post-disaster social work practice.","PeriodicalId":47606,"journal":{"name":"International Social Work","volume":"25 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148499199","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this perspective overlooks broader social conditions. This brief note argues that, from a social justice perspective, disengagement is understood not as “treatment refusal,” but as a consequence of structural barriers and unequal access affecting marginalized populations, including immigrants, refugees, and ethnic minorities. In this view, disengagement reflects limitations in accessibility and cultural responsiveness rather than individual unwillingness. Social work practice—through outreach, relational engagement, and structural advocacy—plays a key role in addressing these barriers and promoting more equitable mental health services.","PeriodicalId":47606,"journal":{"name":"International Social Work","volume":"16 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148285769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
