Global South gaining in relevance

The Global South is becoming very much relevant at a time when the old world order is vanishing in the face of new challenges and crises in the 21st century, speakers at a national seminar on ‘Global South: Together for a shared future,’ said here on Tuesday.

“If we look at all the developments in the 21st century, we will see that we have ceased to have a global order in which countries can look for their position. What you see today in all these crises, including the pandemic, are countries trying to gain an upper hand in the new global order that could emerge,” former Ambassador T. P. Sreenivasan said, inaugurating the two-day event.

The seminar is being organised jointly by the Institute for the Study of Developing Areas (ISDA) - Centre for International Studies and the Centre for Defence and Security Studies, Central University of Kerala (CUK), at CUK’s Capital Centre here.
