1. Strategies for
Sustainable
Development
By Amit Baraikar

2. What is Sustainable Development ⁉️
In simple terms, sustainable development means integrating the
economic, social and environmental objectives of society, in order
tomaximise human well-being in the present without compromising
theability of future generations to meet their needs. This means
seeking mutually supportive approaches whenever possible, and
making trade-offs where necessary.The pursute sustainable
development thus requires improving the coher-ence and
complementarity of policies across a wide range of sectors,to
respond to the complex development challenges

3. Why we need it ?🤔🤔
India as a nation is entrepreneurial and at the apex of
changes. With India being World’s youngest country its
youth needs to be engaged in early and action to create
and sustain a long-term momentum that can help the
country see its targets through and drive Sustainable
development goals action. More than 70% of the world
population lives in cities. Cities already consume 80% of
global material and energy supplies and produce 75% of all
carbon emissions.

4. What if we don't do anything about it ?☝️
Environmentally sustainable economic growth is another
name to the concept of Sustainable Development. The goal
of which is to achieve harmony between environmental
sustainability, economic sustainability, and socio-political
sustainability. Sustainable development always encourages us
to conserve and enhance our resources, by gradually
changing the manners in which we develop and use
technologies. All Countries should meet their basic needs of
employment, food, energy, water, and sanitation. Everybody
is rightful to a healthy, safe, and clean environment. This can
be easily achieved by reducing pollution, poverty, and
unemployment

7.  Moving towards sustainable development will require deep structural changes in all areas of
economic, social and political life. This will include, for example, reforming fiscal policies which
negatively affect the poor or promote environmental damage. Issues of inequity and inequality of
access to assets and resources must be confronted. In the longer term, countries will have to ensure
that their net wealth(including natural, manmade and human capital) remains constant or increases
 The ability to tackle the challenge of sustainable development thus hinges on factors such as peace
and security, political systems, institutional arrangements and cultural norms. Pursuing sustainable
development is therefore essentially a task of transforming governance
What will it 🚕
take to get there?🚏

8. Our role as citizens 👳
1. What can I do, as a citizen, for development to be more sustainable?
2. Citizens already do many things for more sustainable development, often for environmental reasons. For
example:
3. by reducing your consumption of over-packaged products;
4. by walking, bicycling or using public transit instead of your car;
5. by sweeping your driveway instead of using the hose, by not watering your lawn, or by not letting the tap
6. run to avoid wasting water;
7. by choosing a more energy-efficient automobile.
8. To go further, someone could:

9. Cont..🌀
 Buy products that are certified fair-trade. Not only would this help create the conditions necessary to preserve the
environment, they would contribute to social equity through a better distribution of wealth and by helping to
reduce human exploitation.
 change their living habits to include more sports and recreational activities so they will be in better physical
condition. This will lower the risk of accident and illness while enhancing quality of life, another way of contributing
to sustainable development. Why not combine the useful with the enjoyable by getting involved in a local
intergenerational community garden project?
 The Government Sustainable Development Strategy 2015-2020 (French) suggests a wide array of actions for
sustainable development. You will certainly find good ideas in it for how to make an even greater contribution to
the Québec process.
