  “Social work and sustainable development constitute the core of human rights because social work aims at community development and addresses the problems that are beyond the ability of individuals who suffer from them and cause hardship for them” (Al Gharaibeh, 2011: 235).

  Professionalizing social work in Malawi While evaluating social work practice and education in Africa, Kang’ethe (2014) observed that the profession in some African countries appears to display the following flaws: it continues to follow a curriculum that was crafted by Western world countries that does not adequately match the growth needs of African countries; it is not adequately addressing most of the social ills African countries are experiencing; and is usually eclipsed by other professions such as sociology, psychology and economics. The researcher used desk research to review social work practice and education in Malawi and argues that the best way to nurture the profession is for social work educators and practitioners to interact and learn from each other.
