We are an active group with over one hundred members internationally. Since our last SIG application, we have held three paper workshops, organized a panel featuring three scholars in different stages of their academic careers on navigating the academic job market at the intersection of social work and anthropology, and served as a forum for organizing paper collaborations and panel submissions for SSWR and AAA.
