Mr Vikram Singh Mehta, Chairman, Brookings India, chaired the session on How Can Businesses Help Attain Energy, Water, and Food Security? He said that businesses have to question themselves about their practices, about having a holistic outlook, and understanding externalities.

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
