Disasters pose fundamental tests to human resilience not only for physical survival but also on socio-political civility. Internationally, armed conflict remains a significant problem for human security causing humanitarian crises, such as forced migration and food shortages. Globally, there is an increasing recognition that disasters have moved from random events of nature to an increased consciousness that human activity has escalated the frequency and severity of climate catastrophes such as wildfires, famines, storms and rising sea levels. Alongside communities, social work has a critical role to play in preparing and responding to disasters and working with people to rebuild, maintain and achieve their hopes. This article broadens social work’s orientation to hope beyond the therapeutic ‘installation of hope’ by including emancipatory hope in the context of disasters and recovery. Drawing from Braithwaite’s work, this article describes a framework for practice, which advocates for the strategic integration of cognitive change (aligned with Snyder’s view of hope) and structural change (aligned with emancipatory hope) that social workers could mobilise before, during and after disasters. We argue that whilst social workers must build individual psychological hope, this cannot be done without structural change and advocacy to enable viable pathways for achieving hopes.

灾中和灾后的希望：社会工作在创造和培育解放希望中的作用

灾害不仅对人类的生存能力，而且对社会政治文明，都对人类的复原力构成了根本性的考验。在国际上，武装冲突仍然是人类安全的一个重大问题，会引发人道主义危机，例如被迫迁移和粮食短缺。在全球范围内，人们越来越认识到灾害已经从自然的随机事件转变为人们越来越意识到人类活动已经加剧了野火、饥荒、风暴和海平面上升等气候灾难的频率和严重程度。与社区一起，社会工作在准备和应对灾害以及与人们合作重建、维持和实现他们的希望方面发挥着关键作用。本文通过在灾难和恢复的背景下将解放希望纳入治疗性“希望的装置”，从而拓宽了社会工作对希望的定位。本文借鉴 Braithwaite 的工作，描述了一个实践框架，该框架提倡将认知变化（与 Snyder 的希望观一致）和结构变化（与解放希望一致）进行战略整合，社会工作者可以在灾难之前、期间和之后动员起来. 我们认为，虽然社会工作者必须建立个人心理希望，但如果没有结构性变革和倡导，以实现实现希望的可行途径，就无法做到这一点。它主张将认知变化（与斯奈德的希望观一致）和结构变化（与解放希望一致）进行战略整合，社会工作者可以在灾难之前、期间和之后动员起来。我们认为，虽然社会工作者必须建立个人心理希望，但如果没有结构性变革和倡导，以实现实现希望的可行途径，就无法做到这一点。它主张将认知变化（与斯奈德的希望观一致）和结构变化（与解放希望一致）进行战略整合，社会工作者可以在灾难之前、期间和之后动员起来。我们认为，虽然社会工作者必须建立个人心理希望，但如果没有结构性变革和倡导，以实现实现希望的可行途径，就无法做到这一点。
