When Will the Global South Have a Voice?

When Will the Global South Have a Voice?

The international world order has historically been dominated by Western nations, but recent years have witnessed a significant shift as non-Western powers, particularly those in the Global South, have gained prominence. Such discussions have been increasingly prominent at international conferences such as the Raisina Dialogue in New Delhi. We interview Julia Roknifard, on the dialogues that have taken place at the conference and the importance of multilateralism as a platform for Global South nations.
