We hosted the 'Inaugural Convening of the BRICS Academic Forum' in partnership with @RIS_NewDelhi from 17 to 18 April. The two-day discussions were structured around the core thematic pillars of #India’s #BRICS Presidency: Resilience, Innovation, Cooperation, and Sustainability. The convening brought together policymakers, academics, and research institutions from across the #BRICS countries. The discussions examined the bloc’s evolving role in shaping the international order, deepening #economic cooperation, and addressing shared global challenges. #BRICS2026 retains space for enhancing functional cooperation among emerging economies. From Rio to Delhi, the #BRICS agenda reflects a shared commitment to strengthening collaboration and advancing common priorities. #bricsindia2026 #BAF2026 @MEAIndia @samirsaran @SudhakarDalela
