Leadership Round Table

Leadership Round Table (19 November 2012)

The annual Leadership Round Table of the United Nations Global South-South Development Expo offers a unique platform to bring together relevant stakeholders of South-South Cooperation. Reflecting UNIDO’s thematic priorities, the 2012 edition of the Round Table was held on the topic of "South-South Cooperation: Investing in Sustainable Industrialization; Jobs and Wealth Creation."

Each year’s Leadership Round Table is in the spirit of the broader GSSD Expo. Designed as an interactive dialogue among panelists and the audience, the Round Table debated how South-South Cooperation can create the policy environment to ensure that investment flows across the Global South bring along sustainable growth, jobs and wealth creation.

The panel was composed of high-level representatives and senior officials of the United Nations and Member States and featured renowned leaders and experts in the field of renewable energy and South-South and triangular cooperation.
