Sažetak
The subject of social work is the provision of the context in which people can solve their own – sometimes very complex – social problems in collaboration with social workers. Within social work, those who face such problems, i.e. the users of social work, are seen as “experts from experience” (Madsen, 2007; McLaughlin, 2009) – the ones that best know their own lives. In working on their problems, the users of social work as experts from experience collaborate with social workers as equals. With this in mind, my aim in this article is to present a participatory model of social work with creative media that I have developed in my practical and theoretical work in social work using creative media. I named this model the “Spiral Participatory Model of Research, Planning, Implementation and Evaluation of Creative Media”. This model is an upgrade of the so called “circular model of social and cultural activity” as developed by the researchers at Hogeschool Nijmegen in the Netherlands (Šugman Bohinc, 1994). In particular I enhanced the evaluation dimensions of this model using the theoretical concepts of the cybernetics of the first, second and third orders, group work, and methods of participatory research. I see the proposed spiral participatory model as enabling social workers, the users of their services and any other participants to work together, while using creative media, in order to create a context in which the voices of all participant parties can be heard, and which enables all participants to find their own effective solutions to their focal issues.
