On November 14th, Don Bosco Tech Society participated in a multi-stakeholder consultation hosted by the Government of Mizoram and the UNDP on "Leveraging CSOs Expertise for Accelerating SDGs in Mizoram". The event brought together Civil Society Organizations (CSOs) and government officials to discuss strategies for aligning CSO initiatives with Mizoram's sustainable development priorities.

During the event, Don Bosco Tech had the opportunity to present its ongoing initiatives and explore possibilities for collaboration with the state government. The discussions centered around ensuring better alignment between CSO activities and Mizoram's SDG (Sustainable Development Goals) roadmap to maximize development outcomes. "This consultation provided valuable insights into Mizoram's development landscape and priorities," said Father George Mathew, Don Bosco Tech Executive Director. "We are excited about partnering with the state government to contribute towards its sustainable growth agenda." The consultation also served as a platform for networking and building strategic alliances between the CSOs and government officials. Participants discussed innovative approaches, such as Social Impact Bonds, that could drive systemic change in Mizoram.

Don Bosco Tech aims to actively engage with the Government of Mizoram in skill training, a key element in SDG, and make a significant contribution to the state's progress. DB Tech hopes to amplify its contribution to Mizoram's sustainable development journey by fostering this collaboration.
