Abstract
The paper investigates the social prestige of social work in Hungary. Although there are no reliable survey data on the social prestige of social work, it is possible to make preliminary assumptions of social work’s prestige by taking a look at the prestige tendencies of related professions. In this way, it is plausible to draw the conclusion that social work as a profession faces serious challenges in contemporary Hungary. This is corroborated by professionals who took part in a round table discussion held in Pecs on November 12th 2019 as part of the conference “Social Work as an Academic Discipline”. Participants of the discussion on social work’s history and present challenges in Hungary were Marta B. Erdős, Szilvia Endre, and Gabor Szollősi.
