Summary
A key step in the work to improve the financial stability and security of marginalized populations begins with training social work practitioners and other human service professionals for competencies in supporting families to build financial security and freedom. In September 2023, the Department of Social Work at the University of Ghana collaborated with the School of Social Work at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to organize a seminar on financial capability and asset building (FCAB) for practitioners in Accra, Ghana. As part of the seminar, Faculty Director David Ansong discussed CSD’s FCAB Africa initiative. This report provides a summary of the event.
