The Global South should have a bigger voice

China Daily  

WANG XIAOYING/CHINA DAILY India has set several new benchmarks during its G20 presidency. Besides themes of climate finance, women-led development, sustainable development, agriculture and food security, digital public infrastructure and the ongoing Ukraine crisis, G20 policy priority has put the focus on the concerns of the Global South. However, the G20 presidency, passing from Indonesia to India to Brazil to South Africa presents a golden opportunity to steer this powerful grouping's priorities and initiatives toward the Global South. Making the Global South integral to G20 decision-making will also facilitate, and accelerate, rich nations' partnerships with developing countries in trade, investment and technology transfer, as well as to address various global challenges. During India's presidency, the G20 has seen major issues of the Global South such as digital public infrastructure, biofuels, farm products, traditional medicine, and lifestyles for sustainability emerging as the highlights.
