Our Network
ISS SG
International Social Service is an international network established in 1924 and active in more than 140 countries. Our ethics are based on the universal and indiscriminate respect for human dignity. Our values are those defined in the 1948 Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the 1989 Convention on the Rights of the Child and embodied in SOLIDARITY and RECIPROCITY. ISS-WA aims to work in West Africa to strengthen the ISS network in this region and to promote social work especially at the transnational level.
