Vandana Shiva is an Indian physicist and environmental activist with a Ph.D. in philosophy. In 1982 she founded the Research Foundation for Science, Technology and Ecology, an independent institute based in Dehra Dun, to address the most significant ecological and social issues of our times. She has contributed in fundamental ways to changing the practice and paradigms of agriculture and food. Time Magazine identified her as an environmental hero in 2003. She received the Right Livelihood Award in 1993, along with many other prizes and distinctions.

Shiva will speak on the closing day of the conference. In her own words, "Deutsche Welle's Global Media Forum is the ideal meeting ground for people who are actively involved in sustainable development and for anyone who cares about life on our planet for future generations.”
