It is here that the key role can play the concept of cooperation in the “South-South” format. In practice, cooperation through the Yug-South line is a process in which developing countries-regardless of their geographical location-strive to achieve individual or general development goals through the exchange of knowledge, skills and resources. The governments, regional organizations, civil society, academic circles and the private sector are involved in this process. & Amp; nbsp; experience and aspirations of most countries of the so -called global south intersect: they continue to form their post -colonial future and seek to satisfy the needs of their peoples.

This, according to her, indicates the power of collective actions and “sends a powerful signal that cross -border cooperation is possible and effectively.” & Amp; NBSP; the head of the department emphasized that there should be no division between the countries of the Global North and the Global South. “We must build bridges,” she said, adding that the UN is able to take this task, since the United Nations is “that important structure that applies to all countries the same.” & Amp; nbsp;
