Plenary
The Indian economy, seen as a bright spot in the global landscape, holds the responsibility to meet the development needs of its billion-plus population. On closing day of TGY 2017, the Plenary will identify challenges and solutions towards a green and fair economy through a multi-stakeholder group of speakers and guests. This will be done through moderated discussions on 'Transitions towards a Green Economy' which will be preceded by sharing experiences and learning from the first two days of the Yatra. It is scheduled from 10 am to 2 pm.
