Overview

Mission

The international association of schools of social work (iassw) is the global association of institutions of social work education, organizations supporting social work education and social work educators.

What it reported doing in 2024

Promotion of social work education throughout the world by developing cross-national projects and publications.

Operating model

Revenue model
Mixed. Its operating money came from several sources; no one source provided a clear majority.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 82% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. The filing does not identify recipients for some grant dollars and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
