    BACKGROUND AND RATIONALE

    Social justice is a cornerstone of sustainable development and peaceful coexistence in any society. Civil society organizations (CSOs) play a pivotal role in advocating for, promoting, and realizing social justice within their communities and nations. The International Organization for Peace Building and Social Justice (PSJ) recognizes the crucial role that CSOs play in advancing social justice and transformative leadership.

     

    The conference aims to bring together civil society organizations, activists, scholars, policymakers, and individuals passionate about advancing the cause of social justice. The theme underscores the critical role that civil society organizations play in advancing transformational leadership and social justice. It recognizes that civil society, as a powerful force, can influence policy change, hold leaders accountable, and drive societal transformation.
