The landscape of global governance is rapidly evolving, with emerging economies playing pivotal roles in shaping equitable and sustainable development. This talk delves into the transformative paradigms characterizing this shift, focusing on China’s Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) and India’s ascension as the “world's pharmacy”. The speaker will explore how China’s infrastructure projects across Africa and beyond under the BRI represent a significant move towards new types of multilateral engagements, offering insights into its implications for regional connectivity, economic development, and geopolitical dynamics. Concurrently, the speaker will discuss India’s role in global health governance, particularly its massive pharmaceutical industry’s capacity to address global healthcare challenges, contributing to a more equitable access to essential medicines. The aim is to provide a nuanced understanding of these nations’ strategies within the broader context of global governance and South-South Cooperation, evaluating the challenges and opportunities they present for creating a more equitable and sustainable global order.
