About the Roundtable

This roundtable was conducted along with Centre for Development Economics, Delhi School of Economics on 18th May 2019 at the India Habitat Centre.
The key issues discussed were whether to have single or multiple emissions inventories, whether to strengthen existing regulators or establish new ones and whether ownership of sharing knowledge lies with scientist scholars or policymakers. The resulting takeaways were comprehensive understanding about air pollution and its solutions, converting knowledge to actions and getting the regulatory institutions right.
