The most important “axis” in the 21st century might be the Sino-Indian axis, and in that axis the sustainability links could be seen as the most urgent. While the work in this area is almost totally ignored in the “west”/OECD a lot is happening in China and India. One very interesting event, where I have the honor to be a moderator for one session is the India-China Conclave 2008. An event where the approach and themes discussed are in line with the 21st century. I just got some more details about the event, please see the ICEC webpage for more information.
India-China Conclave 2008 is the 4th annual event under India China Economic and Cultural Council’s (ICEC) India-China Economic Programme. The conclave will be held on 20 -21, November 2008 in New Delhi. The conclave is organized by ICEC Council in collaboration with China Chamber of International Commerce and Rajiv Gandhi Foundation.
