Developing South-South Cooperation

South-South Cooperation is about sharing knowledge, skills and resources between developing countries.

It also involves working towards solutions and the joint construction of strategies to overcome common challenges. The South-South Cooperation actions supported by Brazil give priority to promoting socio-economic development that respects the environment, contributing to the autonomy and resilience of cooperating countries by implementing public policies and improving technical capacities.
