The session explored ways to advance global governance and strengthen the effectiveness of multilateralism, while enhancing the role of Global South nations and supporting cooperation across economic, trade and technology sectors. Discussions also addressed the need to build economies that are more resilient, sustainable and better equipped to respond to global challenges and rapidly evolving developments.The session also highlighted the importance of pooling efforts and developing practical partnerships among BRICS countries to support economic growth, facilitate trade and encourage investment, accelerate innovation and technological transformation, safeguard energy and food security, and strengthen sustainability and resilience in responding to shared crises and challenges.The summit concluded with the adoption of the New Delhi BRICS Leaders’ Declaration, which outlined priorities for strengthening economic integration and expanding partnerships among member states, supporting intra-BRICS trade and investment in priority sectors, and promoting innovation and the transformation of the energy sector. The declaration also called for expanded cooperation in artificial intelligence and financial technology with the aim of strengthening the interconnectedness of emerging markets, supporting the role of the Global South in advancing a balanced model of global governance and reinforcing the resilience of the international economy through more effective and sustainable partnerships.At the conclusion of the summit, leaders of BRICS member countries and heads of participating delegations gathered for a group photograph in front of the Bharat Mandapam Convention Centre before taking part in a joint tree-planting ceremony on the lawns outside the centre.
