This article shows the results of a research dedicated to assessing whether and how, in the Italian context, social workers are approaching the challenge posed by the current ecological crisis in terms of social interventions (eco-social work). This objective was pursued by exploring a specific area of intervention related to social agriculture in Tuscany. The practices examined have been studied involving coordinators and social workers. The work was conducted using qualitative tools. It had the aim to observe how the relationship between man and nature is declined within these working practices, what are the social and economic advantages and for which actors (individuals, communities, network of services, etc.), and how these realities contribute to promoting a reflection on environmental protection within the local welfare system. Reflections that can also help to identify traits of the eco- social approach to social work in Italy.

Abstract

This article shows the results of a research dedicated to assessing whether and how, in the Italian context, social workers are approaching the challenge posed by the current ecological crisis in terms of social interventions (eco-social work). This objective was pursued by exploring a specific area of intervention related to social agriculture in Tuscany. The practices examined have been studied involving coordinators and social workers. The work was conducted using qualitative tools. It had the aim to observe how the relationship between man and nature is declined within these working practices, what are the social and economic advantages and for which actors (individuals, communities, network of services, etc.), and how these realities contribute to promoting a reflection on environmental protection within the local welfare system. Reflections that can also help to identify traits of the eco- social approach to social work in Italy.
