  • Descrição: Beginning with Stockholm Conference (1972), the notion of 'sustainable development' has been under repetitive brainstorming at various fora, for mounting a practicably operational framework. However, auditing the activities during the last three decades has revealed that the difficulty lies in translation into practical implementation of policy or programmes. India's efforts at national or regional levels have been significant, but far from accuracy and adequacy in many of the cases, particularly when we look these in the mirror of sustainability and governance. Owing to India's diversity of ecological complexes, economic-development needs and sociocultural settings, national priorities have to be taken care of while framing the agenda for the nation's stand within any international meet. The journey from Stockholm to Rio that witnessed Johannesburg for the World Summit on Sustainable Development, in September 2002, now calls for introspection and auditing of our efforts for meeting national or global agenda of environmental safeguards and sustainable development strategy. The present paper analyses major issues of sustainable development paradigm in the wake of the journey from Stockholm to Johannesburg, identifying Indian priorities for scientific and strategic concerns to be bargained at national and international platforms. It has advocated the priority attention on the issues of food safety in sustainable agriculture, and preventive disaster management, besides listing major scientific concerns for research, education and policy action. Concerns of international cooperation and strategies have also been discussed. It is suggested that participation in global agreements and international negotiations must be based on the indigenous sustainable development model and need for technological and financial cooperation to meet the challenges and commitments.
