The Minister provided information on the extensive social support measures implemented for the families of martyrs and war participants. He also highlighted the important role of the DOST Inclusive Development and Creativity Center—established on the initiative of First Vice-President Mehriban Aliyeva—in promoting the development of an inclusive society, as well as in nurturing and showcasing the talents and abilities of persons with disabilities and other vulnerable groups.
