The SOSKIELI research project brings together a multidisciplinary team of researchers to examine language diversity and new vulnerability regimes in a diversifying and digitalising social work context. Drawing on methods of co-creative research the aim is to advance linguistic justice based social work theory, research and practice through the empirical lens of four categories of non-native speaking service users: families with disabled and nondisabled children, young people and persons 65 and over.
