The evolution of social problems in Peru has led Social Work professionals to review the ways in which they have been developing their work in different areas and this has implied observing the theoretical and methodological foundations, strategies and instruments with which their work is made possible. Although the social sciences have been bringing to public light works that analyze the realities and the social phenomena that underlie them, we consider it pertinent to bring to the discussion of the academic world some reflections that we have been making from Social Work. As a product of a process of exchange of research experiences carried out during 2018 the authors decided to expand this space of analysis and reflection to think this joint publication and can express as a greater interest the idea of rethinking the praxis of Social Work not only in the spaces it traditionally occupies, but in those where it is making inroads quite successfully in recent decades. This publication offers an approach to the relationship between education and Social Work, their complementarity and fields of action.
