BRICS' share of global gross domestic product at purchasing power parity has reached 40 per cent. Experts say this figure reflects fundamental shifts in the structure of the world economy, with developing countries becoming the main drivers of production, trade and investment.
What steps should member states of the group take to further boost these indicators? How does cooperation within the group affect bilateral ties between Russia and Brazil?
Feliciano de Sa Guimaraes, Associate Professor at the Institute of International Relations of the University of Sao Paulo, shared his insights on this topic in our BRICSterview.

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" -
