 12th Sustainability Summit

2030 Agenda: Driving Inclusive Growth

6 – 7 September 2017, New Delhi, India 

Sustainability Summit is an annual flagship event of Confederation of Indian Industry. The focus of the 12th edition of the Sustainability Summit this year will be on 2030 Agenda: Driving Inclusive Growth.  

The last few decades have made it clear that economic development can no longer be viewed in isolation from environmental protection and social progress. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development adopted in September 2015 is a remarkable opportunity to reshape the global economy and make it more sustainable and inclusive. This requires multi-stakeholder partnerships nationally and internationally. The global community has drawn a plan of action to achieve the equilibrium of economic, social, and environmental sustainability envisioned by the United Nations. 

Now as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) move from pledges to practice, a much wider and better-informed deliberation is needed around how business and governments can add the most value for a purposeful shift towards inclusive growth. 

It is with this background, that CII-ITC Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Development is organizing the 12th Sustainability Summit. It is a platform for businesses, governments, think tanks, civil society to share experiences, discuss and debate issues of sustainable development holistically. The Summit will focus on the collective journey of stakeholders in achieving SDGs by 2030. 

The Summit will feature eminent business leaders, political & thought leaders from across the globe, who are the beacon of hope in achieving the SDGs. They will share their inspiring perspectives and intellectual insights for a sustainable future. 

It will have intense deliberations on important issues such as, Climate change, Clean energy, Business ethics, Smart cities, Mining, Water, Good health, nutrition & wellness, Women Empowerment, Biodiversity, Integrated reporting etc.

We look forward to meeting you on 6-7 September 2017!
