Popis: Social work education has long supported the democratization of systems and processes to better respond to the contemporary needs of service users. This commitment to inclusive development has implications for social work education as efforts to democratize are shaped by various cultural demands and imperatives. This chapter examines the ways in which the democratizing of social work education occurs at both the international and national level and is at various times culturally specific reflecting indigenous leadership. It considers the ways in which student-led processes have the potential to further advance democratization providing a continuum of leadership that also includes service users.
