World Social Work Day 2026 – Co-Building Hope & Harmony

The theme for this year is ‘Co-Building Hope and Harmony: A Harambee Call to Unite a Divided Society’, which highlights the vital role of social work in bringing people together across communities, cultures, and systems to shape a more inclusive and sustainable tomorrow. It is both a reminder and a challenge: that the only sustainable way forward is through cooperation, solidarity, and co-creation.
The International Federation of Social Workers says: at its heart, social work is a profession rooted in the values of human dignity, social justice, and community participation. These values affirm that no society can thrive when its people are divided or excluded. The theme therefore underscores the urgent need to restore trust and to rebuild bonds of belonging, in fractured communities.
