She noted that Azerbaijan had previously advanced initiatives in South-South cooperation, but said the new platform stood out for its inclusive structure and global reach.
“This is not Azerbaijan’s first initiative in South-South cooperation; however, this platform is particularly significant as it brings together non-governmental organizations from across countries to amplify community voices in advancing global agendas, including those of least developed countries, small island developing states, landlocked countries, and middle-income countries,” she said.
