The Role of Social Work in the Process of Implementing Active Ageing Policy in the Czech Republic: Content Analysis of Strategic Documents

Original language description

OBJECTIVES: The aim of this article is to present the document analysis method and its application to social work research as a complementary data analysis technique and the procedures of this technique on the specific example of document analysis of the implementation of active ageing policy as a partial research output. THEORETICAL BASE: Active ageing is the basis for the current social policy on ageing in Europe, with it a number of changes that are reflected in social policy and also in the practise of social workers. METHODS: We combined content analysis and deductive qualitative analysis (DQA) according to Gilgun (2020) as a complementary research technique. We analyse the overarching strategic documents at the EU and the Czech Republic level dedicated to active ageing policy. OUTCOMES: The analysis showed that the role of social work is defined in documents rather implicitly. Then we continue to deepen the analysis. The results showed an essential connection to social work practice. SOCIAL WORK IMPLICATIONS: Based on the results, we can say that the role of social workers is irreplaceable, but it is not clear. It is then necessary to overcome this at a local level, i.e., at the level of regions and municipalities, which should specify the role of various stakeholders.
