Background information:
South-South cooperation has long served as an important platform for promoting global development. The BAPA+40 document expanded the scope of South-South and Triangular Cooperation (SSTrC) to include South-South trade and investment; and acknowledged the roles played by multi-stakeholders, civil society organizations, and the private sector; national and local authorities in promoting SSTrC for sustainable development.
Since 2000, China-Africa cooperation has been continuously expanding and deepening, which greatly enhances Africa’s self-dependent development capacity and sets a successful model of South-South cooperation. Meanwhile, the African region is still calling for more support and strengths through South-South cooperation.
The GSSDC project was jointly initiated by United Nations Office for South-South Cooperation (UNOSSC) and the China International Center for Economic and Technical Exchanges (CICETE) upon the conclusion of the China South-South Development Center (China SSDC) Project. According to the Statement of Intent signed between the Ministry of Commerce of China and UNOSSC, the China SSDC has been upgraded to Global SSDC since June 2019. The GSSDC project will build on the achievements of the China SSDC project and enhance its global impact, strive to be a global platform for SSTrC, and promote the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals.
