Mangaluru: The Centre for Future of Democracy, in collaboration with Yes We Can and NSWS, recently organized a dynamic session at Mangaluru University, focusing on Legislative Think Tanks and Social Empowerment aligning with the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The event brought together eminent personalities, Mr. Stephen Anurag and Mr. Shaun Dsouza, to share their insights and experiences with political science advocates and students from the Department of MSW.

Alongside him was Mr Shaun Dsouza, a Clinton Global Fellow of 2023 and the Director of Myriad Corp, serving as the SDGs Mission Co-Chair in Chikmagalur.

The session, attended by students from the Department of MSW, was preceded by faculty members who set the stage for an engaging discussion. The primary focus was on exploring the impact and scope of social work and political empowerment in the context of the future. Both speakers encouraged students to brainstorm ideas rooted in social work that contribute to the accomplishment of sustainable goals.

Mr Stephen Anurag, in a generous gesture, extended internship opportunities for MSW students in the Centre for Future of Democracy, providing them with a platform to apply theoretical knowledge to real-world scenarios.
