World Sustainable Development Summit 2022

The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI) based in New Delhi is a renowned research institute on sustainable development and climate action and we pride at being a think-tank, do-tank, and a tech-tank. Nearing five decades of its journey towards pioneering conversations on sustainable development and climate action, TERI is an independent research organization, headquartered in New Delhi.

It gives us immense pleasure to invite you to TERI’s annual flagship event, World Sustainable Development Summit (WSDS), scheduled to be held from 16th -18th February 2022, under the umbrella theme, ‘Towards a Resilient Planet: Ensuring a Sustainable and Equitable Future’. The theme is keeping in line with the present state of planetary health, and humanitarian crises, which calls for revisiting questions related to global action and equity. Given the uncertainties related to COVID-19 and considering everyone’s safety the Summit will be held in a virtual mode.

The Summit formerly known as Delhi Sustainable Development Summit was instituted in 2001 with the primary aim to make sustainable development a globally shared goal. WSDS carries forth this legacy, and is India’s foremost platform discussing issues of sustainability. The last edition of the Summit was inaugurated by the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modi, and saw participation from 118 countries. Over the years, the Summit series has brought together 52 Heads of State and Government, 13 Nobel laureates, ministers from 78 countries, 1827 business leaders, 2418 speakers and 26091 delegates from across the world. A document providing information of some Distinguished Speakers from past Summit Editions and a Brochure of WSDS are attached.
