There are many ways to enhance and promote diversity in social work education and practice, and the list below is by no means exhaustive.

 Teach social work students to act as allies.

 Move beyond tokenism.

 Support social workers to use assessment and intervention tools that promote diversity. If these are believed to be Eurocentric, then adaptations and modifications should be made to ensure that these tools are fit for purpose. The ability to make appropriate adjustments to the intervention and/or the manner in which it is used and delivered is an important consideration when thinking about benefits to service users.

 Support students and practitioners to engage with ethically sound media and news outlets – you are what you read!

 Engage in reflective practice as a student and beyond.
