In March 2012, social workers on the global level adopted a document called the Global Agenda for Social Work and Social Development envisaged as an attempt to respond to some consequences of the global economic crisis. The following areas were stressed as main areas of interest: promotion of social and economic equality, promotion of individual dignity and diversity among people, sustainable environment development and quality interpersonal relationships development. The growing poverty as one of key social problems in Croatia is analysed from the present perspective as well as from the aspect of roles and challenges for the social work profession.
