About WSDS

We invite the global community to the World Sustainable Development Summit (WSDS), the annual flagship event of The Energy and Resources Institute (TERI), to be held from 10th to 12th February this year. Marking 20 years in its journey of making ‘sustainable development’ a globally shared goal, the Summit series brings together governments, business leaders, academicians, climate scientists, youth, and the civil society in the fight against climate change.

With its focus on bringing the voices of youth and women to the forefront, the Summit intends to carry forward these vital discussions from the Global South to the 26th UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties in Glasgow.

Adapting to the world’s changed circumstances, the World Sustainable Development Summit 2021 is being held completely online, allowing participants to register and join remotely from anywhere in the world to attend our various thematic tracks, plenary sessions, business sessions, and an e-expo.
