Title: Live-in-Relationships and Socio - Legal Challenges in India

Abstract: Due to the absence of legal protection for property rights, live-in relationships continue to be socially stigmatised in India, especially in traditional groups. Property rights are usually valued by married couples, and live-in partnerships are not specifically recognised by Indian law. The difficulties that live-in couples encounter may be made worse by this lack of family support. Without legal recognition, issues pertaining to inheritance rights and child custody become complicated. Although it offers some protection against domestic abuse, the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act of 2005 can be difficult to apply and enforce. Partners can not have the same financial rights or job benefits as married spouses. Despite these challenges, perceptions about cohabitation are gradually shifting, especially among younger people and in urban areas. Comprehensive legislative reforms are necessary to address the socio-legal problems that cohabiting couples face and to provide them with adequate protection and rights.

Title: Humanitarian Crises and Refugee Mental Health in Europe: A Psychological Perspective on Forced Migration and Global Governance

Abstract: War, political instability, persecution, human rights violations and natural calamities have forced millions of people to involuntarily run from their homes in search of safety and stability, due to these sorrowful reasons humanitarian crisis arises and explains what really happens with these refugees. Europe has become one of the major destinations for refugees escaping such crises, however their experiences and what they are truly going through in order to survive is frequently reduced to policy debates. This paper strives to understand humanitarian crises, forced migration and refugee mental health challenges in Europe through a psychological perspective along with understanding the importance of global governance. This study uses a qualitative content analysis approach as it uses secondary data from international organization and existing research literature to assess the reasons for forced migration. The refugees who flee from their home countries don't migrate voluntarily because migration for them becomes a vital necessity when safety, dignity and basic rights are threatened to them and their families. They come across financial burden, unemployment, legal uncertainty, social exclusion, discrimination and very limited access to healthcare and mental health services. The existing literature regularly shows that these stressors built-up over time have severe psychological repercussions. The refugees show a very high prevalence of mental health disorders such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), complex traumatic stress disorder which happens due to persistent exposure to trauma, depressive and anxiety disorders, sleep disturbances and somatic symptom disorders. This study also addresses how India-Europe collaboration would help through policy exchange frameworks and community-based mental health interventions.

Title: The Theory and Practice of Conceptual Aspect of Democracy - A Critical Review

Abstract: Democracy is a way of life. It provides “Possibility of concurrence in action without the preliminary necessity of shared religion, moral conviction or political program. The democratic temper may lead to readiness to accept an other’s truth to be as good as his own, and therefore to enter into community, so far as it is possible to secure a reconciliation. ‘Democracy is traditional to level for the so called fundamental issues, which in any view, remain fundamental even if a number of schools apparently consider them obsolete’. The expressions ‘democracy’ and ‘democratic’ have been used in varying senses in different countries and in many places have been subjected to denote the state of affairs which is in complete negation of the meaning in which they are understood. The three spheres of Democracy are Political, economic and social. Political democracy means the Government by the people, economic democracy connotes the control of the means of production and social democracy means the abolition of social Privileges.

Title: Technology as a Catalyst for Global Change: Innovation, Equity, and Sustainable Transformation

Abstract: Technology has emerged as a transformative force shaping global development, social equity, and environmental sustainability. From artificial intelligence and digital health systems to renewable energy and smart infrastructure, technological innovation is redefining economies, governance, and human well-being. However, unequal access to digital resources, infrastructural disparities, and ethical challenges continue to widen global inequalities. This chapter explores how technology functions as a catalyst for global change by examining its role in innovation ecosystems, social inclusion, and sustainable development. It critically analyzes digital transformation across sectors such as healthcare, education, industry, and environmental management, while addressing issues of digital divide, data governance, and ethical responsibility. The chapter further aligns technological advancements with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), emphasizing inclusive innovation and policy-driven transformation. Through conceptual frameworks and global case illustrations, it proposes a balanced pathway that integrates innovation with equity and sustainability. Ultimately, the chapter argues that technology, when guided by ethical governance and inclusive policies, can serve as a powerful instrument for achieving resilient and sustainable global futures.
