CGTN Global Biz host Cherry Qiu recently convened a dynamic youth roundtable featuring top journalists from Brazil, South Africa and India. The goal? To explore how BRICS cooperation is rewriting everyday experiences for young people across these nations.
Through spirited storytelling and on-the-ground insights, panelists highlighted three key areas where BRICS ties are making a tangible impact:
- Cross-Border E-Commerce: Journalists shared how streamlined payment gateways and joint logistics networks are helping small businesses reach customers on other continents with faster deliveries and lower fees.
- Visa Facilitation: New visa agreements have cut application times and opened doors for students, entrepreneurs and travelers eager to discover cultural hubs and emerging markets.
- Tech Collaboration: From shared research hubs to co-developed apps, partnerships in AI, renewable energy and digital health are empowering startups and creating new career paths for tech-savvy youth.
Participants agreed that these shifts are more than policy wins—they signal a new chapter of inclusive growth and cultural exchange. As digital-savvy young global citizens, they see BRICS as a living network of opportunity, where ideas, goods and people move with fewer barriers.
This lively Youth Talk underscores the real-world impact of international cooperation—and reminds us that when young voices connect, innovation follows.
