520 _aThe Tata Energy Research Institute (TERI) in associa tion with the UNDP (United Nations Development Programme) and the IDRC (International Development Re search Centre), Canada conducted an international seminar in October 1992, New Delhi, shortly after the Earth Summit at Rio de Janeiro in June 1992. The theme was environment and development policy issues in Asia after Rio. The seminar was attended by a number of eminent researchers and policymakers from around the world, who are active in the field of sustainable development. A large number of papers, including several by persons who actu ally negotiated the Rio agreements, on the themes of the Rio process and its outcomes, were presented. The products of the seminar include reports by three Working Groups which relate to the future course of action on sustainable develop ment in Asia, and a Compact on Sustainable Development Concerns in the Asian Region, a non-official declaration of the concerns and perceptions of a number of eminent Asians. The present volume is a compilation of the papers presented at the seminar, the speeches made at the inaugural and valedictory sessions, and the outcomes. It will be of interest to researchers, policymakers, and serious activists in the movement for sustainable development.
