Seminars/Conferences/Symposiums

Three-day National Seminar on the topic “Sustainable Development Goals: Building Future India” Sponsored by ICSSR – SRC, Hyderabad, Organised by CSSEIP, University of Hyderabad, held on 24-26 March 2022. There are three pillars for Sustainable Development viz., Environmental Sustainability, Economic Growth and Social Justice, unfortunately, due importance has not been given to Social Justice while designing policies and programmes in many countries. By keeping this in view, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were proposed in the UN Rio+20 summit in 2012 to follow-up and accomplish the targets set by the Millennium Development Goals (MDGS) after the 2015 deadline. The objective of the seminar was to bring together the academicians, researchers, policy makers, practitioners and all the stakeholders on to one platform to deliberate upon the key issues, challenges and strategies to achieve the SDGs by 2030.
