Delhi Sustainable Development Summit is an annual summit organised by The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) in New Delhi in the pursuit of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The global presence and reach attained by TERI are not only substantiated by its presence in different parts of the world, but also in terms of the wide geographical relevance of its activities. Symbolic of this fact is the annual Delhi Sustainable Development Summit (DSDS), a major event focusing on sustainable development, environment, and energy, the pursuit of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and assessment of worldwide progress in these critical areas. TERI, since 2001, annually organises the Delhi Sustainable Development Summit (DSDS) to facilitate the exchange of knowledge on all aspects of sustainable development. Over the past fifteen years, it has emerged as one of the foremost fora on issues of global sustainability. This flagship event of TERI brings together various Heads of States and Governments, thought leaders, policy makers and the crème de la crème of industry and academia to deliberate on myriad issues. To date, the Summit has hosted 45 Heads of States & Governments, ministers from over 60 countries and delegates from across continents. The Summit has evolved as a significant congregation of leaders from the fields of polity, economy, academia and civil society to deliberate on issues related to sustainable development. The Summit also features a Media Colloquium, host of parallel break-away sessions and special events which allow for in-depth discussions on myriad aspects related to the Summit theme. The DSDS attracts worldwide thinkers and practitioners, coming from governments, business and industries, multilateral and bilateral organiSations, research and academia and civil society. Following this success, TERI has established the World Sustainable Development Forum (WSDF), which aims to emulate the DSDS, but applying its talks and research worldwide, and aiming to monitor worldwide industrial development, associated environment and sustainability analysis, and to provide interesting solutions to local industries and government, to meet the MDGs. ==World Sustainable Development Forum== The World Sustainable Development Forum (WSDF) was established in 2005 to function as a global platform for knowledge sharing and policy discourse aimed at: - advancing the achievement of the MDGs (Millennium Development Goals) - promoting global developmental cooperation to correct gender imbalances - expediting the alleviation of poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy, malnutrition and disease The Forum functions as a platform to identify, analyse, and disseminate policy interventions to enhance human well-being in the present and create conditions for a sustainable future. In this endeavour, the Forum is guided by highly distinguished patrons who are global leaders in government, industry, and academia. The key objectives of the WSDF are to: * Connect with the finest minds and leading thinkers of the world to focus on sustainability issues * Bring together policy makers and practitioners to chart a course of action to enable countries and regions to meet the challenges of sustainable development * Monitor progress towards the achievement of MDGs globally, and periodically review the progress in select countries * Share knowledge and best practices amongst partners and disseminate the work related to sustainable development and the MDGs * Undertake research projects either directly or in collaboration with institutions sharing similar goals and missions WSDF organises Regional Sustainable Development Summits (RSDS) to disseminate knowledge and generate public awareness on issues related to sustainable development regionally. RSDS is aided considerably by the messages emerging from the DSDS (Delhi Sustainable Development Summit), to build bold visions for a development paradigm that calls for sustainability across the present and future generations. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Delhi Sustainable Development Summit」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
