Brazil's finance minister speaks at the opening of the G20 plenary ministerial meeting
This has become the final session of the G20 2024 Finance Track
Speaking at the opening of the G20 Ministerial Plenary, Brazilian Finance Minister Fernando Haddad said that the Brazilian G20 Presidency had sought consensus and presented historic documents and an agenda with recommendations to increase access to vertical and environmental funds, as well as a series of G20 Notes on issues such as inequality, debt and climate change.
He argued that the very existence of the G20 is proof that global economic governance is evolving, reflecting important changes in the world economy. This is reported by Agencia CMA, a partner of TV BRICS.
He emphasised that G20 countries must focus on substantially increasing climate finance. A rapid and equitable energy transition that does not conflict with the protection of life, livelihoods and biodiversity around the world must be promoted.

Ashok MondalNID Director"Signing this Memorandum of Understanding between the National Institute of Design (NID) and TV BRICS marks a pivotal milestone in advancing design diplomacy across the BRICS media space. This moment is especially significant as India hosts the 18th BRICS Summit, following India’s assumption of the BRICS chairship under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi. The partnership directly embodies his call to elevate Indian design standards through 'Design in India, Design for the World'. Through the global reach and broadcast capabilities of TV BRICS, we are excited to showcase the extraordinary visual storytelling, films, and design research of NID’s Film and Video Communication students to an international audience, while also welcoming and screening film works from BRICS network countries at NID Ahmedabad. This reciprocal exchange strengthens our shared commitment to educational, cultural, and artistic collaboration, fostering sustainable connections among global creative communities. NID Ahmedabad looks forward to leveraging this partnership to deepen cross-cultural dialogue, build international expert networks, and unlock transformative opportunities for filmmakers, researchers, and faculty across member nations" -
