WSDS 2026 Thematic Track: Action for the Aravallis: Advancing Restoration, Resilience, and Inclusive Growth will be held on 25 February 2026, 2:00–3:30 pm at Jehangir 2, Taj Palace, New Delhi. Curated by TERI and The Nature Conservancy (India) as a WSDS 2026 thematic track. It convenes representatives from MoEFCC, forest and line departments, public institutions, the private sector, and NGOs to accelerate ecological restoration across the Aravalli Range.

The dialogue will spotlight the MoEFCC-led Aravalli Green Wall vision and evidence-based interventions that strengthen groundwater recharge, biodiversity, and climate resilience while enabling inclusive growth. TNC India will launch a Decision Support System to guide data‑driven eco‑restoration across forests, wetlands, rivers, grasslands, and regenerative agriculture. Anchored in WSDS 2026’s Silver Jubilee theme Parivartan: Transformations: Vision, Voices and Values for Sustainable Development , the track aims to forge a durable multi‑stakeholder coalition and chart clear policy, governance, and financing pathways for scalable restoration.
