Harambee! We celebrate Social Work Day
Like every third Tuesday of March, Social Work celebrates its World Day, inviting society to reflect on the role each person plays in achieving the true common good.
This year's theme is the International Federation of Social Workers (IFSW)."Building Hope and Harmony Together: Harambee's Cry to Unite a Divided Society"
Harambee is a Swahili expression that means "all together" or "unite" so that everyone can collaborate and contribute to a certain task, it is used in Africa as a call for cooperation to overcome challenges together.
"This call to build hope and harmony together reminds us that no challenge is too great when we move forward together", in the words of IFSW president Joachim Mumba, who highlighted the role played by social workers,"They are in every corner of society, alongside communities as they face adversity. We walk with people as they rebuild bonds, AUREN trust and build resilience."
At Mútuan we share this spirit of achieving an eco-social world, through values such as customer service, employee commitment, public awareness, efficiency, quality and innovation, and ethics and corporate social responsibility.
The daily work of Fraternidad-Muprespa social workers as mutual collaborators of the Social Security is reflected to a large extent through the use of special benefits, essential to recover and maintain the daily life of workers who have suffered a professional contingency.
In 2025, 600 special grants were managed, amounting to more than 800,000 euros, aimed at improving the patient and their environment who suffer the consequences of a life-changing occupational accident.
47% of these benefits were help to adapt essential means to carry out the basic activities of daily life (assistance at home, access to new technologies, adaptation of vehicles or removal of obstacles in the home). 31% to aid for rehabilitation and health improvement. And the rest for other support, such as professional reorientation and training for carers of people with severe disabilities.
The social workers are a fundamental support of Mútua that takes care of you, serving to help reactivate the person and guarantee well-being in society. Social Work encourages us to work for our common future, let's do it "together"(Harambee).
