The twenty-first century is unprecedented in human history as there are three transitions that are taking place simultaneously in the fields of demography, economy and environment. The proposed conference attempts to probe them through the experiences of Canada, an advanced economy with low stress on demography but high stress on environment through global warming and Arctic shrinkages; and India, an emerging economy with high stress on demography but low stress on environmental issues, mainly because of the emerging Service Sector that constitutes more than 52% of Indian economy.
