Abstract/Resumo
Digital Social Work has become, in recent years, a fashionable concept since its use has spread rapidly after the constraints caused by the 2020 global pandemic (Pink, Ferguson, and Kelly 2021). In turn, global migrations at the beginning of the century radically changed the preset notions about the migratory flows of the 20th century, bringing new ways of understanding the existing difference within societies, with superdiversity being one of its conceptual manifestations (Vertovec 2007). This chapter aims to associate these two conceptual notions to discuss, on the one hand, the importance of digitization in social intervention, and specifically for Social Work, in the context of contemporary reality, which is complex (van Ewijk 2018) and superdiverse (Vertovec 2010; Álvarez-Pérez and Harris 2021). On the other hand, the aim is to discuss technology and digitization as tools to get to know the superdiversity dimensions of the subjects of intervention, and, therefore, also useful tools for intervention. For this, digital integrations will be presented for the practice with superdiverse populations at the macro, meso and micro levels.
