Organized by the Center for International Policy Research (CIPI), with the co-sponsorship of the Latin American Social Council, the meeting, scheduled from September 27-29, will have deal about the main theme “Transforming the International Order: Challenges of Transition and Proposals from the South.”

According to organizers, in the current world context, marked by a period of overlapping transitions, the old global order, dominated by the United States and its allies, is being challenged by the emergence of new stockholders with the capacity to modify the balance of power.

In such a scenario, in order to preserve its leadership, this power fuels conflicts outside its territory and appeals to the multilateralization of sanctions and policies of maximum pressure.

At the same time, these global challenging changes present opportunities for the underdeveloped world and reinforce the need to redesign institutions, rules and forms of action to achieve the transition to a more just and truly equitable world order.
