(1) Background: Adequate housing conditions and access to basic house amenities are fundamental human rights and indicators of individual wellbeing. The paper aims to present children’s perception regarding housing conditions and household goods and their impact on children’s overall satisfaction with their house. (2) Methods: We aim to determine the contribution of housing conditions and household goods on children’s satisfaction with their home in 31 countries worldwide. To capture differences in children’s satisfaction with their house based on their housing conditions, we analyzed models conducted on data from 10 lower- and upper-middle-income and 20 high-income countries. We used secondary analysis on data from the third wave of Children’s Worlds: International Survey of Children’s Well-Being (ISCWeb) (87,000 children, aged 10–12, worldwide). (3) Results: The results show that there is a link between the material conditions of the family and children’s satisfaction with the house they live in, and also that having a place to study and access to internet are the main factors related to housing that explain children’s satisfaction. (4) Conclusions: Children mostly appreciate the way housing setting and household goods contribute and ensure their proper development through the creation of a stimulating home learning environment. Results are helpful in setting future standards to increase children’s wellbeing and quality of life, and ensure adequate housing as one of the pillars of sustainable development.

This paper presents a qualitative study that highlights the effects of bureaucracy on social workers and beneficiaries as well as the support factors that help social workers cope with bureaucratic demands. The focus on administrative tasks and the large volume of paperwork hinders the work of social workers, reduce the time dedicated to beneficiaries, delay their access to resources and services and decrease trust in the system. Digitalization, simplification of procedures, and coordination between institutions can help reduce bureaucracy in social work.

In their work, social workers in mental health services experience a high level of work-related stressors. The literature considers that resilience helps social workers to cope effectively with pressures, learn from their experiences, and develop personally and professionally. This paper presents the results of a qualitative study involving 16 social workers working with adults with mental and intellectual disabilities in different services in Bihor County. The results of the study highlight the importance of developing resilience as a factor in coping with stress. The development of resilience is based on the relationship between social workers and the work environment. Organizations contribute by creating a suitable working environment, offering support, etc. Personal characteristics such as self-esteem, adaptability, hopefulness, sense of humor, coping based on problem approach and less focus on emotions, initiative, and creativity, but also social skills and the development of supportive relationships and openness to new experiences, are key elements in this context.

This paper examines the balance between professional and personal life among social workers in Bihor County. Factors influencing this balance, as well as modalities to maintain this balance, are explored. The research methodology involves interview-based surveys with 29 social workers from various organizations from the public and private sectors. The study reveals a fragile work-personal life balance because of long working hours, overload with tasks, and fatigue. The imbalance leads to stress and conflicts. Findings highlight that the support offered by family is an important factor in maintaining this balance among social workers. Also, there is a need for organizational support through flexible schedules and training.
