	DSDS 2007 With the deadline of the year 2015 for achieving the MDGs (Millennium Development Goals) only eight years away, the search for solutions for meeting development challenges has assumed greater urgency. In 2007, DSDS aims to step up the ante and to provide fresh impetus to the MDGs. The 2007 edition of the DSDS will therefore be focused on assessing the achievements, disappointments, and lessons from seven years of action towards the attainment of the MDGs. DSDS 2007 will specially focus on exploring the natural resource dimensions of sustainable development. The incessant depletion of natural resources, both a cause and consequence of varied forms of human deprivation, will be examined at length during the deliberations.
