About the International Seminar Technological development and environment are invariably related to each other. Even the developing countries cannot afford to ignore the environmental consequences of the process of development. Hence an essential and grave problem is to maintain harmony between development and environment. The future of the developing countries greatly depends on better international understanding of the right of development because this right depends on several other human rights. Article 55 of the U. N. Charter describes economic development and respect for human rights as the twin foundations of friendly and peaceful relations among nations. Economic development and human rights are thus intimately connected with each other. Development is linked with human rights through ii
the clear acceptance of social and economic rights as well as established human rights. Thus human rights and economic development are clearly complementary to each other. Stockholm Conference, Habitat Conference and Conference on Desertification and several other conventions relating to environment not only provide foundation for the development of international environmental law but make it clear that a real beginning has been made in the management of the world in which all of us live in the right directions. The Stockholm Conference on Human Environment is also remarkable for creating institutions (as discussed above) for the protection and preservation of human environment but it must be noted that "their vitality will obviously depend on the behaviour of governments. In this sense, the Stockholm Conference on the Human Environment was neither a beginning nor an end but an unprecedented opportunity to break new ground in the management of a world in which all of us live. It cannot be denied that the Stockholm Conference has been successful in breaking the new ground. It is clear from above discussion that protection and preservation of environment are necessarily related to development. The seminar shall focus on the challenges faced environmental degradation due to technological development with all type of socio-legal measures to tackle the problem. It shall also answer how to protect human environment in this world. The overall emphasis of the Seminar shall be to make the participants aware about the emerging challenges faced in existing legal system and its probable solutions.
