Indic Values and Ethics of Social Work Profession of India

Social work education in India has its values and ethics in various capacities, but simultaneously, the standardized values and ethics are entirely Western-centric. The Western-centric social work practice has difficulty in India due to India's socioeconomic , cultural, traditional, and geographical nature. The present paper focused on the social work values and ethics practiced in India, which were not recognized as Western-centric. So, the researchers are focused on how values and ethics are practiced without knowing the social work profession in ancient India, the relationship with ancient literature, and the present scenario of social work profession practice in India.
