Decoding Green Growth with Amitabh Kant
India's G20 presidency is coming at a historic time. In the face of a mounting economic crisis, along with the demands placed by climate change, it is important for leading nations to pave a way for the world that is enduring and sustainable in the long term. 'Green growth' emerges as a critical priority, therefore, for the current G20 presidency.
What is India's vision for green growth? And how is it steering this conversation globally? In the first episode of Decoding Impact Season Two, we are joined by eminent governance reformer, public policy change agent and the Indian emissary to G20, Mr Amitabh Kant. With Mr. Kant, our host, Rathish Balakrishnan unpacks what green growth means for India, and how it is critical to our G20 agenda.
