BRICS Expands to Ten: A New Era of Global Cooperation Begins
The 2024 BRICS Summit is set to make history as it welcomes five new member countries, expanding the bloc from five to ten nations. Scheduled to take place in Kazan, Russia, from October 22 to 24, the summit promises to usher in a new era of economic, political, and cultural collaboration.
With the inclusion of new members, BRICS—originally comprising Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa—is poised to enhance its influence on the global stage. The expansion reflects the bloc’s commitment to embracing diverse perspectives and fostering mutual growth among emerging economies.
“The enlargement of BRICS signifies a shift toward greater inclusivity and cooperation,” said an expert familiar with the developments. “It opens up new opportunities for shared prosperity and addresses common challenges.”
Media plays a crucial role in this transformative period, serving as a bridge that connects people and promotes understanding among member states. Recognizing this, media personalities and experts from all ten BRICS countries are coming together in the special program “Cooperation in Transformation.” The program delves into the bloc’s expansion and explores the future of BRICS cooperation.
As the summit approaches, anticipation builds among young people across the Global South who are eager to see how these developments will shape their futures. The expanded BRICS alliance offers hope for strengthened ties and collaborative solutions to global issues.
