کیریئر رہنمائی اور کاؤنسلنگ اقوامِ متحدہ کے پائیدار ترقیاتی اہداف (SDGs) میں کس طرح معاون ہیں
Prof. Yugantar Ballal, HoD, WeLearn India
آج کی تیزی سے بدلتی دنیا میں کیریئر رہنمائی اور کاؤنسلنگ اختیاری معاون خدمات نہیں رہیں — یہ پائیدار مستقبل کی تعمیر کے ناگزیر اوزار ہیں۔ اقوامِ متحدہ کے پائیدار ترقیاتی اہداف (SDGs) کا مقصد 2030 تک زیادہ شمولیتی، منصفانہ اور خوشحال دنیا بنانا ہے، اور ان میں سے کئی اہداف کے حصول میں کیریئر کاؤنسلنگ اہم کردار ادا کرتی ہے۔
Schools and universities that integrate structured career guidance and counselling into their educational ecosystem actively contribute towards achieving the SDGs.
SDG 4 – معیاری تعلیم
Career guidance helps students make informed educational choices aligned with their interests, aptitude, personality, and learning styles.
SDG 8 – باوقار روزگار اور معاشی ترقی
When students choose careers based on their strengths and aspirations, they are more likely to become productive, skilled, and satisfied professionals.
SDG 3 – Good Health and Well-Being
Career confusion and academic pressure are leading causes of stress among students and parents. Proper counselling improves mental well-being, confidence, and decision-making ability.
SDG 5 – صنفی مساوات
Career counselling encourages students especially girls to explore non-traditional career paths and break stereotypes.
SDG 10 – عدم مساوات میں کمی
Students in Tier 2, Tier 3, and rural areas often lack access to structured career guidance. Schools and universities implementing counselling initiatives help democratise access to opportunities.
مستقبل کے لیے تیار شہری تیار کرنا
The world of work is rapidly evolving with AI, automation, sustainability, and global careers. Career guidance helps students understand emerging careers, develop necessary skills, and align themselves with future workforce demands.
Career counselling is not just about choosing a profession it is about helping individuals discover purpose, contribute meaningfully to society, and build a sustainable future for themselves and the world.
At WeLearn India, we believe that schools and universities that prioritise career guidance are not just building successful careers they are directly contributing to the achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
