Both in the professional field and in the international academia, we always say that social work is an international profession with local practice and global implications. Of course, we have formed a few international or regional social work organisations for the pursuit of our ideals and exchange of ideas, such as the International Federation of Social Workers (IFSW), International Council on Social Welfare (ICSW) and International Association of Schools of Social Work (IASSW). In fact, our International Social Work (ISW), as a professional and academic journal, is serving as a platform and network for sharing and advancing the mission of the social work profession globally by revisiting, researching and reflecting on local social work practice in different parts of the world. In this forum, perspectives on concepts, content, contacts and constructs of meaning are examined by the global social work community.

具有共同点和差异的国际职业：对COVID-19的社会工作回应，本地是全球的，反之亦然

在专业领域和国际学术界，我们总是说社会工作是具有本地实践和全球影响的国际专业。当然，我们成立了一些国际或区域性社会工作组织，以追求我们的理想和思想交流，例如国际社会工作者联合会（IFSW），国际社会福利理事会（ICSW）和国际学校协会社会工作学院（IASSW）。实际上，我们的国际社会工作（ISW）作为专业和学术期刊，通过重新访问，研究和反思世界各地的本地社会工作实践，作为在全球共享和推进社会工作专业使命的平台和网络。在本论坛中，全球社会工作社区将探讨有关概念，内容，联系和意义建构的观点。
