Occurrence of domestic violence among women from Ukraine utilising social services in the Czech Republic. Possible causes of uprise of this issue and following support.
Velát, Anna ; Pěnkava, Pavel (advisor) ; Poláčková, Ester (referee)
Domestic violence in the Czech Republic is an ongoing phenomenon, which affects not only native Czech women, but also immigrant women from foreign countries. Dealing with domestic violence can be especially difficult for immigrant women, as they may also be subject to issues like language barriers, having an insufficient social network, or stress from being in a new environment. Domestic violence perpetrated upon women of Ukrainian descent is especially relevant today, since the number of Ukrainian residents in the Czech Republic is steadily rising. Social service providers focusing on domestic violence are increasingly having to deal with cases of domestic violence affecting women who are third country citizens. The goal of this work is to draw attention to this topic, point to its possible causes, and show its occurrence in practice using casuistries. This work describes intimate partner violence on a theoretical level, where the woman is in the role of victim, and the man in the role of perpetrator, where both partners are interconnected with the cycle of abuse. Furthermore, this work outlines the factors contributing to occurrences of domestic violence in Ukrainian society, to which end it utilizes multiple foreign sources, which have not yet been translated into the Czech language.

Is current social work with the community in the Czech republic a theory or a practice?
Deutschová, Barbora ; Pěnkava, Pavel (advisor) ; Šťastná, Jaroslava (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to draw the reader's attention to the importance and necessity of community and social work with the community, which is not anchored in the Czech Republic by any legislation. The thesis draws attention to a number of ambiguous definitions of terms and different perspectives on social work with community, although many professional materials emphasize the need for functional communities, which are often replaced by social services. My thesis presents a deaf understanding of terms relating to community and community work. The emergence and gradual development of community social work then expands and refines the understanding of community work and its impact on society as a whole. The role of the social or community worker themselves then plays a crucial role in social work with the community, with clarification of their remit and job description being an essential part of social work with the community. The starting point for this work is the national and regional strategic documents that influence the direction of social work. The thesis then turns to research to answer the key question of whether current social work with the community in the Czech Republic is theory or practice.

Social aspects of ageing regarding homeless people in connection with systemic measures taken in the city of Prague
Pěnkava, Pavel ; Matoušek, Oldřich (advisor) ; Koldinská, Kristina (referee) ; Vágnerová, Marie (referee)
Homelessness is a socio-pathological phenomenon, caused by the inability of an individual to deal with crisis situations and leading to the lost of relationships but also the material environment. As a result of the above, the social exclusion of the individuals gradually becomes unchangeable. Here, Pěnkava (2013) describes the vertical decline within the social stratification, which brings a deep frustration and in a number of cases leads to resignation on the efforts to deal efficiently with the unfavorable situation. The causes of such collapse are multifactorial and hence, in order to solve them there is cooperation on the level of multidisciplinary teams needed. However, numerous issues are currently being solved by social workers only, who in many cases are forced to replace experts in fields such as law, psychology, pedagogy of leisure time, geriatry or medicine. The central theme of the dissertation is dealing with the possibilities and limitations of people without home in old age living in the Capital City of Prague. Considering the factors of age, the diversity in satisfying their needs and the associated risks involved, is this a specific group of people that is, moreover, at immediate risk to their lives and health. As a consequence, the dignity of these people is being hurt not only...
