Eco-social work is an approach that recognizes the interconnectedness of social well-being and environmental health.

Eco-social workers aim to promote sustainable practices, empower communities to adapt to environmental challenges, and advocate for policies that support both social justice and ecological sustainability. By integrating environmental awareness into social work, it fosters solutions that are equitable, resilient, and environmentally conscious, ensuring a healthier future for both people and the planet.
