00:00The third Global South Academic Forum concluded its activities in Shanghai,

00:05bringing together experts and academics from diverse regions

00:08to analyze the contemporary challenges of the Global South,

00:12discuss history and strengthen cooperation among countries of the Global South.

00:16A correspondent, Bruno Fassi, brings us more details.

00:21Shanghai hosted more than 250 specialists from 21 countries

00:26for the third edition of the Global South Academic Forum.

00:31The meeting highlighted the anti-fascist victory,

00:34the sacrifice of China and Russia,

00:37and reinforced the historical solidarity of the Global South

00:41reflected in shared discussions and projects.

00:45This collaboration, then, is a significant one in a sense that

00:48here you don't only have the Chinese, you've got Africans,

00:52Latin Americans, we have Europeans, Japanese, South Koreans

00:55and other people from this region who are here

00:59because they have a common goal of advancing our understanding

01:04of how we can improve the human condition.

01:07And this is what brings everybody here.

01:09So, by and large, this is a show of solidarity.

01:13It's a manifestation of collaboration.

01:16And we're looking forward to doing more with all these partners

01:19who are here from over 21 countries across the world.

01:22The forum facilitated the exchange of experience

01:27in family farming and technology,

01:30showing how cooperation with Chinese universities

01:33strengthens sustainable production,

01:36technological innovation,

01:38and the revitalization of rural communities.

01:41This is also important for the MSD,

01:47because the MSD here in China has established various partnerships

01:51with universities, especially the Agricultural University,

01:55in search of technologies so that we can advance

01:58in appropriate agricultural mechanization,

02:00in family farming, but also in bio-inputs

02:03that enhance the production of our crops.

02:10The battle of ideas, media concentration,

02:13cultural imperialism,

02:15and the challenges of artificial intelligence

02:19were discussed,

02:20underscoring the need to strengthen independent channels

02:24and content in the region.

02:26communications war, there are multiple fronts,

02:29like the battle of ideas,

02:30it's a very complicated concept, right?

02:32We're talking, one, not just about journalism

02:35or media in the traditional sense of the term.

02:38We're also talking about, say, TV shows.

02:41They're also part of communications in a larger sense.

02:43We're talking, for instance, about social media,

02:45of course, forms part of it,

02:46but we're talking about a variety of cultural products,

02:49all of which come under the sector of communications.

02:52And we need to think about that in those terms

02:54because the fundamental question before us

02:56is how are, especially young people,

02:59making sense of the world today, right?

03:01And that is through a variety of platforms

03:03which did not exist in the past

03:05and which are largely captured by the imperialist forces.

03:09The meeting concluded by highlighting

03:12the solidarity of the global self

03:14as a coordinated action,

03:17promoting the exchange of experience,

03:20innovation and collaboration

03:22among countries to build

03:24a more just and multipolar world order.
