How is India Preparing for the BRICS Youth Entrepreneurship Meeting?

To ensure active participation and preparation, the Department of Youth Affairs has planned eight run-up events across various universities and institutions in India. These events aim to:

– Encourage discussions on entrepreneurship among Indian youth.

– Spread awareness about the BRICS Youth Council’s agenda on entrepreneurship.

– Provide a platform for young entrepreneurs to showcase their ideas.

Each of these run-up events includes panel discussions and youth-driven conversations on entrepreneurship, helping young participants understand global economic trends and the significance of BRICS as a multilateral platform.

Why is the BRICS Youth Entrepreneurship Meeting Significant? The BRICS alliance, established in 2006, is a major global economic bloc that represents 42% of the world’s population, 27% of global GDP, and over 16% of international trade. The BRICS Youth Council, which was launched at the 2023 Youth Summit in South Africa, focuses on strengthening youth collaboration in education, innovation, entrepreneurship, health, and volunteerism.
