Abstract:

This study examines the effectiveness of digital narrative methods as a means for immigrants who are isolated in their communities and the social workers who support them to share experiences, knowledge and information; identify where problems lie; and examine avenues for problem solving. In particular, we propose a framework for further discussion, focusing on the significance of social prescriptions in assisting minority citizens who are isolated in society. We go on to investigate how immigrants can be integrated into the social networks of their communities to help them build mutual understanding and common understanding with other citizens. The study examines whether the transmission and sharing of experiences, knowledge and information through digital narratives using digital devices and the fostering of mutual understanding and mutual respect by the implementation of effective social prescriptions can help to support minorities.
