Speaking during the conference, Director, GASDI, John Agbonifo, said the international sustainable development dialogue brought together world-renowned scholars and other stakeholders in an effort to deepen the discourse and practice of sustainable development.
He said there are things the government, industries, and people can do to promote awareness among citizens and educate them about what is going on in the world.
