Social Initiatives and people are making a better world
Over the years, social initiatives have been emanating and flourishing globally. Corporates, Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs), Individual entities have been rolling out their initiatives backed by government policies and support or out of sheer goodwill. While some of the programs are done to extend the organisation's helping hand to the socially backward, few people do more than their share to reach out to the underprivileged.
In this blog, we try to answer its importance and see a few global and Indian initiatives that have benefitted society and are fighting to make this world a better place.
Why is Social Initiative important?
There is nothing new about People or Organisations taking up Social Initiatives. Nor is it seen only in third world countries. These initiatives had been prevalent for a long time globally. Companies have been doing their CSR activities. Social campaigns were organised by NGOs, and relief measures were rolled out by government agencies in the long past.
Why are we talking about Social Initiatives now? The world around is witnessing a rise in unemployment. The gap between the haves and the have-nots is increasing, especially in a post-pandemic world. Unless steps are taken to bridge the gaps and to provide equitable opportunities to grow, the scenario will turn from bad to worse.
