BRICS Summit in Kazan
In a world marked by the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic, the emergence of multipolarity, and rising geopolitical tensions, the BRICS coalition —Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa— stands at a crucial juncture. Ongoing conflicts, particularly in Ukraine and Gaza, alongside efforts for economic decoupling from China, highlight the need for effective multilateralism. As one of the founding members, India plays a vital role in shaping the discussions within BRICS, influencing not only regional stability but also the broader implications for global governance. This webinar aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the upcoming BRICS Summit in Kazan, with a special focus on India's agenda and the broader implications for global economic and political dynamics.
In this context, we aim to explore: What are India’s primary strategic interests and proposed agenda for the 2024 BRICS Summit? How can BRICS nations effectively address and navigate current geopolitical challenges? And is BRICS seeking to offer an alternative to the liberal world order, and how might this influence international relations?
With this discussion, which is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), the Friedrich Naumann Foundation for Freedom contributes to making the UN´s Agenda 2030 more known - especially regarding human rights and rule of law.
