‘Cape Town Conversation’ happening November 24-26 in Cape Town, South Africa.

Africa is the continent where key global opportunities are playing out and where solutions
are  being discovered and partnerships forged to respond to the challenges of the present and
future.  As such, Africa is playing a central role in shaping both political and developmental
narratives,  policies, and new institutions in the global governance system.
The year 2023 is unique for international cooperation with South Africa holding the BRICS 
presidency and three developing countries in the G20 Troika – Indonesia (past presidency),  India
(current presidency), and Brazil (next presidency), with South Africa to follow. A key  outcome of
India’s Presidency has been the introduction of the African Union as a permanent  member of the
G20. Now is the time to realize common futures, and to move beyond the  binaries of North –
South and for innovation and Dialogue to flow. In this effort, India is a  unique partner – it can
share its developmental frameworks and bring voices from the  developing world to shape
international conversations
Cape Town Conversations will serve as an annual South Africa-based platform that brings 
together key stakeholders and new voices. It is designed as a common platform where 
established and emerging actors convene for a global conversation on contemporary issues of 
global governance —identifying new challenges, ideating possible solutions and shaping the 
world order of the future.
