Leaders across the world have demonstrated how mutual support and collaboration are integral to outstanding leadership. COVID-19 has given us a chance to outperform ourselves and develop new ways of going about our respective jobs.
The Khimsar Foundation was founded by Kunwar Dhananjai Singh of Khimsar in 2013. With all the commendable work that many NGOs are doing in education, women empowerment, etc., the inability to solve people’s daily problems remains an issue at large. Therefore, with Khimsar Foundation, Dhanajai aims to help develop people’s lives with a broader perspective and focus on their holistic development instead of just one or two facets of life.
A sustainable and harmonious India, premised upon the tenets of liberty/freedom, equality, and justice, where communitarian ethics ensure the people’s safety and security, thereby upholding their fundamental rights to live with utmost dignity.
Liberty, freedom, equality, and justice define sustainability and the harmony of the nation. In such a setting, communitarian ethics promise the people’s safety and security, encouraging their rights to prevail with absolute significance.

We need to protect this historical momentum to ensure that the rights of the underprivileged sections of society streamline our politics and financial decisions.
The urgency is all too clear: if current demographic and conflict trends—protracted complex conflicts with a high risk of relapse, forced displacement at a record scale, urbanized conflict, growing inequality—continue, the gap between needs and response will only grow worse.
The quintessential factor in creating a nation that thrives is a substantial (and foundational) change lies in the way we approach issues and problems. For starters, developing solutions to end distress and suffering is a sign of outstanding leadership. Finding ways to fix it is the way out!
Going forward, our mission stands true to achieve the goal of our 2030 Agenda. Our mission is to encourage inclusivity and help those who have not been privileged enough to come first. There is a lot to be done on how we approach our vulnerabilities in times of crises.
Our concern should be to bring to attention the 88 million people living in vulnerability. Our collective responsibility is to help make decisions regarding peace and security, development, humanitarian actions, and human rights keeping their lives in our minds. Our work should entail addressing the 17 SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals) in the areas that are affected by such problems to bring about an equilibrium in society. This would also include revamping the agencies, funds, and programmes of the United Nations.
Now that we are repairing the damage, we must now work towards minimizing the possibilities of these vulnerabilities and risks. The Humanitarians and development actors should look for developing chances to bring collective benefits, keeping in mind the subjective privileges. We need to work on creating combined development agendas rather than individual institutional mandates.
Developing reservoirs for wiping vulnerabilities and risks off people’s lives is not an overnight process but is a process; a process that requires time and effort. We need to motivate investors and donors to fund collective outcomes instead of individual projects which have no value in the long run. We need to work closely with the local actors to minimize the risks so that we are assuring them of the security of the support we have to offer. Also, we need to develop more financial tools that include risk insurance and cash payments based on risk analysis to enhance the traditional mix.
