Director’s Speech

The Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) and the succeeding Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) were adopted by United Nations as a universal call to action to World Governments to pay special attention to policies that seek to meet human needs for security, health, education, work, general welling and the environment. These target goals coupled with the efforts of some international organisations like the United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) UNICEF that have conventionally focused on social policy issues relating to the wellbeing of the less privledged members of the society like children, women and other vulnerable groups, have continued to promote emphasis on social policies by governments.
