Dr Ajay Mathur, Director-General, Bureau of Energy Efficiency, Government of India chaired the session on Re-thinking Development. He stresses on the fact that while much of the past decade has focused on MDGs, time has come to reflect on these and plan ahead. It is becoming increasingly clear that the challenges the world faces in respect of energy, water and food security are interlinked. Consequently, if strategies have to be developed for tackling one or the other aspect of this integrated challenge we would need to consider comprehensive and critical aspects of managing supply and demand for energy, water and food in a manner that ensures security in each of these. It is in this context, DSDS 2014 deliberated upon 'Attaining Energy, Water and Food Security for All'. For more information, visit http://dsds.teriin.org
