The Union Minister added that countries need to adopt new growth models and resilient development priorities, placing sustainability at the centre of policy-making. "India's model of sustainability, too, has a development strategy based on a balance between economy and ecology at its core. Countries need to re-engineer a new growth model and resilient growth development priorities, and make sustainability central to the policy sector," Yadav said.

The Union Minister stressed that sustainability must be at the core of development strategies, highlighting measures such as the circular economy model, nature-positive actions, green manufacturing and behaviour change for responsible consumption.
