Adelphi University School of Social Work Continuing Education and Professional Development and the Institute for Social Work and Ecological Justice are pleased to host the 6th Annual Ecological Justice and Social Work symposium:

World Transformation Fatigue: Social Work and Ecosocially Just Futures May 8th 2026 10am to 2pm ET

In a world that often feels increasingly chaotic, fragile, and unpredictable, social workers and allied practitioners are left asking: What is happening? How do we continue to support people and the planet when we carry so much concern? And how do we move forward? We are navigating these profound questions while also tending to our own, and client’s, limits and wellbeing.

This virtual symposium will offer space to acknowledge the confusion, grief, and uncertainty of our world shaped by ecological crises, war and displacement, the rapid expansion of AI, ongoing attacks on human and environmental rights, and a growing sense of fatigue and apathy. Together, we will explore practices that make room for pause, rest, and restoration as essential, not optional, honoring their place in our responses to this moment. In doing so, we hope to reconnect with purpose and cultivate care, connection, and collective resilience on the path toward more just and livable ecosocial futures.

Please visit the event homepage for registration and call for proposals, including opportunities for two presentation types, posters, and/or submissions for the ISWEJ website. We hope to see you there!
