As world leaders cross the planet to attend the APEC meeting in Peru, the G20 Summit in Rio and COP29 in Aerbaijan, the voice of the global south has never been more vital.

At all of these gatherings, developing nations are fighting to get their voices heard, and pushing to create new forms of global governance that can change the way the world is run. We’ve heard a lot of talk in the past weeks, but what does the rise of the global south really look like in practice?

Joining Juliet Mann on this episode of The Agenda are Erik Solheim, Former Under-Secretary General of the UN and former head of the UN Environment Programme, Alicia García-Herrero - Senior fellow at Bruegel and Chief Economist for Asia Pacific at Natixis, and Yin Zhiguang, Professor of International Politics at Fudan University.
