At the closing session, the Summit reiterated its welcome of the Doha Political Declaration, which was adopted by the Conference. The Declaration emphasized the interconnectedness of eradicating poverty, providing decent work opportunities for all, and achieving social inclusion as essential elements for attaining sustainable development. It also provided significant impetus to accelerate the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

It also promises to leave no one behind, end social injustice, and guarantee dignity for everyone.

Building on the 1995 Copenhagen Declaration, the Doha Declaration addresses contemporary challenges, including climate change, digital transformation, and demographic shifts.

Nearly 150 submissions from governments and organisations showcased innovative solutions for social protection, employment, and poverty reduction, many of which were featured in a “Solutions Studio” promoting practical, scalable actions.

Today we DSSW (Department of Social Work), University of Delhi organised an workshop on

LEPROSY: UNDERSTANDING THE DISEASE, DISMANTLING THE STIGMA. Distinguished guest, Dr. Ashok Agarwal, the Chief Executive Officer of NLR India with his team took the seesion.

Leprosy, as we know, is one of the oldest diseases known to humankind. Although it is completely curable, the stigma and social discrimination associated with it often persist, affecting individuals and families long after medical treatment is complete. The challenge before us, therefore, is not only medical but also deeply social and psychological. As social work professionals and scholars, it is our responsibility to understand these broader dimensions and to contribute towards building communities that are inclusive, compassionate, and just.www.linkedin.com/posts/prof-sanjoy-roy-4ba39369_today-we-dssw-department-of-social-work-activity-7383443224172019712-ax2M?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAA545A4BRSlTgpVa7kM1Ky24aLjCBsxyudQ Organizations such as NLR India have been making remarkable contributions in this direction — through early detection, rehabilitation, and advocacy for the rights and dignity of persons affected by leprosy.

We aim at generating an awareness and conscience on autistic individuals, as well as the vision of a model of an autism friendly campus solely dedicated for them.  The film thoroughly portrayed the vision of the person, who lived his life passionately to make an autism friendly campus in the outskirts of Hyderabad. At the same time, the film depicts the emotion, communication and unfathomable zeal of the autistic individuals, who are leading a life of dignity and love. The film dives deeper through the film, into the philosophy of dedicated service and empathy building through film medium, touching even the minute details of the unique life and feeling of the autistic inmates of the campus, as well as their guardians. It was experiential learning for the social work students / scholars. Thanks to Sourav Bhai 🙏
