The Policy of Decentralization in Ukraine
Анотація
Abstract After proclaiming its independence in 1991, Ukraine inherited Soviet ideology, a centralized public governance system, the neglect of human rights, and paternalistic social services. Gradually, the national policies were shaped. Social work practice and education were introduced. This chapter explores political and ideological transformations in Ukraine in the 1990s–2020s. Special focus is on the decentralization policy and its intersection with social work. International organizations supported the launch of the bachelor’s and master’s training programs. But social work didn’t turn out to be a fully recognized profession in demand. It is still an “unfinished” professional project, with a lot of para–social workers engaged in service provision, and their informal training is sometimes more flexible than in formal educational settings. The chapter ends with a suggestion to revise the educational programs and to incorporate into them the concepts of social justice, human rights, and activism as core social work ideas to reflect European and professional values.
