Qui sommes-nous

The institute was primarily involved in training people to work in programs on drug rehabilitation, counselling and therapy for the troubled, on child abuse and neglect, projectoriented community development theories and income generation and skills development programs.
SWI gradually shifted its approach towards preparation of hands-on social workers and general human resource development in the field of social work by conducting long and short-term training and workshops for various target groups.
