Mr. Sauraveswar Sen, founder mentor of Catalyst Learning Services was the key speaker in the workshop. He gave an enriching presentation on the myriad employment opportunities in the field of social sciences that can help the young students build a career, as well as through their work, contribute in making the society more inclusive and participatory. The areas of opportunity discussed spanned from climate-sensitive journalism, collaborating with think tanks and international organisations for human resource development, security studies, mentorship to civil servants, public policy, cinema and media studies. He also highlighted how the fields of social development and human resource have gained an impetus since the formulation of the New Education Policy.
