A Workshop on Human Development Report – 2012 Preparation at JKSHIM

The academic as well as policy significance of the concept of human development has taken a new turn now. Human development is, no doubt, the goal of any society which faces the problems of poverty, unemployment, under nutrition and malnutrition. Obviously in such a society, education and healthcare facilities are needed. But Human Development cannot just remain a goal of planning. Eventually it emerges as a means of overall development in every society said Dr. Mudddumohan, Deputy Commissioner of Udupi District. He was inaugurating the second workshop organized for the finalization of Human Development Report for Udupi District for 2012.

The workshop was organized at the Justice K. S. Hegde Institute of Management, Nitte, with the support of Zilla Panchayath Udupi on 26th April, 2014. Stating that higher education institutions can play a very important role in preparing human development and comprehensive development plan reports, he profusely complemented JKSHIM, Nitte, on setting a model in management education. The involvement of the Institute has helped the Government a lot at the district level in fulfilling the objectives of preparing an authentic and reliable Human Development Report. He remembered that the report of the Udupi District 2008 got recognition at the national level.
