Department of Social Work

The Department of Social Work came into existence in July 1996 under the inspiration of Gurudev Tulsi, founder of the Anuvrat Movement. The Department of Social Work is a part of the Jain Vishva Bharati Institute; as such its working is very much influenced by the objectives and value ethos of the Institute. The motto of the Institute "Character building is the essence of Knowledge" permeates all its programmes and activities. The values of non-violence and peace as also those embodied in "Anuvrat" constitute the élan vita of the Institute. Apart from this institutional influence, the other factor that impinges on the functioning of the department is the topography of the place – the arid landscape devoid of all diacritical marks of modernization, both promoting and polluting. The department accomplishes the theoretical and practical goals of Social work education within these normative and existential frameworks. The department works with an apriori belief that professional social work education imperatively needs an ethico-spiritual value underpinning. The aim of the whole exercise is to emancipate social work as far as possible from the shadow of dubious values of the West and ground it within the cultural paradigm of our own, bedrock of eternal verities.
