Aligarh: The Social Work and Outreach Activities Club of Women’s College at Aligarh Muslim University held an inaugural talk and launched its membership programme.

Highlighting the club's objectives, Prof Shadab Bano drew the critical distinction between charity and social work. He stressed that receiving an education gives us a responsibility to share its benefits with others. She urged the students to view social work as a civic duty.

Prof Nazura Usmani emphasized the importance of the disability support committee and discussed strategies to foster inclusivity and increase the representation of differently-abled students on campus. She stressed the need for disability sensitization among the student body to build a more understanding and accessible environment for everyone.
