Goals / remit
| Goals / remit of the organisation: |
According to Article II of the Intergovernmental Agreement, the Centre has the following among its central objectives:
To promote South solidarity, South consciousness and mutual knowledge and understanding among the countries and peoples of the South;
To promote various types of South-South co-operation and action, South-South links, networking and information exchange;
To contribute to South-wide collaboration in promoting common interests and Co-ordinated participation by developing countries in international forums dealing with South-South and North-South matters, as well as with other global concerns;
To foster convergent views and approaches among countries of the South with respect to global economic, political and strategic issues related to evolving concepts of development, sovereignty and security;
To contribute to better mutual understanding and co-operation between the South and the North on the basis of equity and justice for all and, to this end, to the democratization and strengthening of the United Nations and its family of organizations.
Broadly, the Centre works to assist in developing points of view of the South on major policy issues, and to generate ideas and action-oriented proposals for consideration by the collectivity of South governments, institutions of South-South co-operation, inter-governmental organizations of the South, and non-governmental organizations and the community at large.
In order to meet its objectives, and within the limits of its capacity and mandate, the Centre also responds to requests for policy advice, and for technical and other support from collective entities of the South such as the Group of 77 and the Non-Aligned Movement.
These functions are carried out by means of policy-oriented research and analysis and by publishing and disseminating widely the results of its work.
