LOPEZ-YEPES, Angélica  y  CUENCA-ECHEVERRY, Jackeline. Social Work in Contexts of Political Formation: The Transformative Practice. Prospectiva [online]. 2020, n.29, pp.89-106. ISSN 0122-1213.  https://doi.org/10.25100/prts.v0i29.8707.

This article discusses the internship experience, in alternative social and political processes, of students of the Social Work Program at Universidad del Valle. The objective is to critically reflect about the internship and its practices in political contexts of a progressive nature, and about the pedagogical task of Social Work in said processes. This was done through an exercise of introspection and reflection based on the systematization of experience in the training process. The analysis and interpretation were done using the social critical paradigm in order to encourage an exercise of criticism and self-criticism of the student of Social Work, focusing on their political and ethical convictions, interests, and, in general, mobilizing elements of intervention. Finally, the article proposes that there is an indissoluble relationship between Social Work and political belief systems and action, whereby the latter configures and guides the nature and practice of the former.

Palabras clave : Internship; Pedagogy; Social transformation; Social subjects; Social intervention.
