Greetings to all esteemed colleagues gathered at this multidisciplinary conference! Currently, we are facing unprecedented challenges from global warming and its environmental concerns to political instability and its socio-economic impact. These challenges require innovate solutions from all stakeholders harbouring interests of the common man. As a social scientist, I firmly believe that we need to come together and address these challenges through multidisciplinary approaches and therefore, I welcome you all to this valuable platform for such collaborative efforts.

Social problems are complex and multifaceted and therefore multifaceted approach is necessary to effectively address them. I am sure through this platform, all attending stakeholders will integrate insight of different disciplines to tackle the complex social issues of our time. In addition to addressing the global challenges, this multidisciplinary conference will play a crucial role in the transformation of multi discipline collaborations among researchers, policy makers, academicians, and students to engage in critical discussions, exchange ideas, and explore new paradigm and methodologies. I firmly believe that as a social scientist, it is impertinent for us to address issues of inequality, discrimination, and exclusion within our field and particularly in the society. Therefore, through this platform, I encourage all of you to foster diversity, inclusivity, social justice and help raise awareness about these issues and be an transformative change this world needs (more than ever).
