Abstract
A Quest for the Depths of“ Yuragi”
I have reflected on my trajectory in social work education, practice, and research through the lens of“ yuragi,”. In the fields of social work and social work education, there are many moments when one encounters unspoken emotions, hesitation, and uncertainty that cannot be fully put into words. I have sought to understand such experiences by conceptualizing them as yuragi, and by exploring them through both poetic expression and academic inquiry.
In addition, in my research on the community-based integrated care system, I have proposed the hypothesis that diverse forms of yuragi also arise in the process of interprofessional collaboration. I believe that these forms of yuragi can become opportunities to deepen relationships among professionals. Looking ahead, I hope to give words to the yuragi experienced by people working in care settings.
I am convinced that the core of social work lies in the stance of continuing to stand beside clients, even while wavering and wandering within uncertainty.
