International Human Solidarity Day
The word "solidarity" is an affectionate expression that communicates the sentiment of humankind's togetherness. Considering the diversity of individuals and cultures in India, people's potential to live in harmony is influenced by these complexities. We Indians, a diverse nation, have a wide range of customs and beliefs. Social solidarity highlights the interconnectedness of people in a society. Every year on December 20, people all across the world observe International Human Solidarity Day (IHSD) to honour the ideal of harmony in diversity. The focus of this day is on the necessity of ending poverty in society, highlighting the UN's mission to accomplish this.
The United Nations Sustainable Development Agenda for 2030 aspires to lessen impoverishment in all of its aspects worldwide, and the International Day of Human Solidarity celebration is indeed a big move in that direction. As poverty has grown to be a significant issue for individuals everywhere, this day serves as a prompt to all residents to be increasingly cautious with their food and not to trash any food at all.
The "Jayantian Extension Services" programme of Kristu Jayanti College was established to encourage social responsibility and upstanding citizenship among the students. These services are offered to evaluate the requirements of the area and create a network between institutions and the communities which are struggling to have a normal life. These services also support the holistic development of the adjacent villages, and they coordinate their outreach and extension programmes in coordination with several departments. As part of eradicating poverty college has commemorated World Food Day with the theme “Leave NO ONE Behind” on 16 October 2022.
The mission of the occasion is to serve as a wake-up call to governments, members of civil society, and other institutions that poverty can only be addressed and abolished either through a concerted effort to bring in a time of social equality, dignity, and justice. In order to combat the issues caused by rising inequalities, the UN considers that fostering global solidarity is important.
