Graduate school students from MBA, MBA-DRM and DBA programs attended the ICSD 2021, which discussed different topics ranging from gender equity to climate change to economic development, all focused on solutions to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). There were more than 90 participants who attended this parallel session. Indeed, the conference was a success as noted by active participation from participants. There were many good questions from participants however not all of them were attended to due to time constraints. Prof. Dr. Raza gave a synopsis of the session in which he congratulated the organizers, presenters and participants for the successful event. He noted that despite our background, social and cultural differences we are all faced with same problems. That calls for a global cooperation and active participation from everyone especially in researches towards finding solutions to our common problems. No one is safe until everyone is. We must change with change as the only thing that remains constant is the change itself.
