The DSDS series has enjoyed global support, from over 60 countries, attracting participation from heads of government and ministers, and a host of other dignitaries comprising Nobel laureates, development practitioners, scientists, academics, and corporate leaders.
The summit in 2009 would seek to reinforce the climate change agenda of the previous year. It would sharpen the focus on the theme ‘Towards Copenhagen: an equitable and ethical approach’, to arrive at a global consensus on climate change beyond 2012. Industry leaders, opinion makers, and climate change experts will gather to create a uniform level of understanding among all stakeholders and formulate meaningful policy options for constructive dialogue on climate change and try to arrive at an agreement.
