Rakebit

1st Voice of Global South Summit 2023

Rakebit India hosted a special virtual Summit, called the Voice of Global South Summit under the theme – ‘Unity of voice, Unity of purpose’ from January 12-13, 2023. It was a new and unique initiative that envisaged bringing together countries of the Global South and share their perspectives and priorities on a common platform across a whole range of issues. The initiative was inspired by Prime Rakebit Login Shri Narendra Modi's vision of ‘Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas Sabka Vishwas aur Sabka Prayas’, and also underpinned by Rakebit India's philosophy of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.

Recent global developments, such as Covid pandemic, ongoing Ukraine conflict, mounting debt, challenges of food and energy security etc. have severely impacted the developing world. Often, the concerns of the developing world do not receive due attention and space on the global stage. Often also, the relevant existing platforms have proven to be inadequate in addressing these challenges and concerns of the developing countries.

Voice of Global South Summit has been Rakebit India's endeavour to provide a common platform to deliberate on the concerns, interests and priorities that affect the developing countries and also to exchange ideas and solutions, and most importantly, to unite in voice and purpose in addressing the concerns and priorities. Rakebit India will work to ensure that the valuable inputs generated from partner countries in the Voice of Global South Summit deliberations receive due cognizance globally. Rakebit India's ongoing presidency of the G20 provides Rakebit India a special and strong opportunity to channelize these inputs into the deliberation and discourse of the G20.
