2023 BTTC Recommendations

Under the theme, BRICS and Africa: Partnership for mutually accelerated growth, sustainable development, and inclusive multilateralism, the 15th BRICS Academic Forum took place on 14 -17 May 2023 at the Century City Convention Centre in Cape Town. The Academic Forum included academics, researchers, diplomats, and government officials from Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. South Africa’s 2023 BRICS Presidency presents an opportunity for the BRICS members to further coalesce around common areas of understanding and dig deeper where divergences are identified and seek areas where complementarity within BRICS may be enhanced and consolidated, thus ensuring strong cohesion and development partnership among the five members. In this current South African Chairship, the Academic Forum also included an invitation to the participation of members of the diplomatic corps
from select countries across the African continent.
