Amartya Sen (born 3 November 1933) is one of the most influential economists and philosophers of the modern era, known for linking economic progress with human dignity and social justice. His Capability Approach transformed the global understanding of poverty by emphasizing that true development means expanding people’s real freedoms and opportunities. Awarded the Nobel Prize in Economics in 1998, Sen’s ideas continue to guide policies in education, health, and welfare worldwide. He reminds us that economic growth is meaningful only when it uplifts the most vulnerable. A teacher, scholar, and humanitarian, his legacy stands as a beacon for a more just, compassionate, and inclusive world.
