Vision
The Kurukshetra Trust is a platform for strategic dialogue, research, and cooperation among nations, civilizations, and communities.
The Forum envisions a future where humanity’s resources — natural, technological, intellectual, and cultural — are managed and shared wisely to ensure sustainable, secure, and plentiful availability for generations to come.
Our mission is to foster cross-border collaboration and strategic dialogue to address the world’s shared resource challenges — ensuring equitable access to energy, clean air, fresh water, nutritious food, quality education, and digital empowerment.
We seek to build resilient social systems by integrating knowledge, innovation, and policy action across nations and sectors. Guided by principles of sustainability, inclusion, and human dignity, the Global Resource Strategy Forum strives to create pathways toward a secure, balanced, and cooperative global future.
