JSDP 2021 - 18-21 Sep 2021 at Udaipur

37th JOINT STAFF DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME 2021

Corona Pandemic and Sustainable Development Goals: IMPACT, RESPONSES & PROSPECTS

18 - 21 September 2021 (Saturday - Tuesday) Hotel Fateh Garh

Sisarma Bujra Road, Udaipur, Rajasthan

THEME NOTE Our shared vision to eradicate poverty and inequality, save our planet and build a peaceful world by meaningfully working on universally accepted Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is shattered by prevalent Corona Pandemic that began as a health crisis but quickly turned into a human and socio-economic crisis.

This necessitates now to dedicate our efforts with greater rigour and commitment turning this decade into the period of intense action. In this context, it’s our endeavour to mobilize governments, political systems, businesses, civil society, communities and NGOs to work collectively and in synergy to create better world for every form of life.

The pandemic has led us to think and rethink on the developmental processes, tools, outcomes and objectives afresh. A new churning in the form of analyses, debates and reshaped consensus is the imperative to chalk out newer strategies and action plans. NGOs are an important partner in the process to attain the SDGs. Their adeptability at aligning

activities to the development goals as well as their competence in replicating

best practices with peer groups will provide a meaningful cause to further enhance our march towards attaining SDGs. In post-Covid-19 scenario,

it

is

therefore

necessary

for

NGOs

to

focus

on

combining

their

diverse

resources

for

creating

an

effective

human

centric

transformational approach to more than regain what we lost.

The JSDP 2021 being held at Udaipur from 18th to 21st September 2021 will focus on the pandemic and its impact on society in the context of SDGs. Through this JSDP it is our endeavour to deliberate 360 degrees on major development goals, have a clear understanding of their present status, and recommend the way forward for designing actions on the part of partner organizations. It will also be an important occasion to enable participants to develop clarity on their programmes and actions adopting the Training Manual on SDGs for NGOs, specially developed

by Council for Social Development.

The event will have a galaxy of speakers sharing their insights and experiences on the theme germinating quality discussions on the areas relevant to SDGs.
