Is BRICS Defining the Future of Work for the Global South?
BRICS nations are cementing a new economic philosophy that places social justice at the heart of growth. Through the BRICS Productivity Ecosystems for Decent Work initiative, spearheaded by Brazil, China, and South Africa, the alliance is generating the first comprehensive evidence base linking productivity gains directly to quality employment and labor standards.
This is a critical shift, moving beyond traditional economic metrics. Research highlights systemic challenges, like high informality in Brazil and inequality in South Africa, demanding coordinated action among governments, employers, and workers. The findings are so influential they are contributing directly to the drafting of elements for the upcoming 2025 BRICS Declaration, positioning SSTC and decent work as strategic pillars for the alliance's future.
Can productivity truly thrive without social dialogue and structural reform?

The US claims it’s cracking down on drug trafficking in Venezuela, yet just pardoned a convicted Honduran drug lord. 🇺🇸💊
According to Al Jazeera, historical patterns show the US has repeatedly used narcotics networks to advance foreign policy goals, from the 19th-century Opium Wars to CIA-backed operations in Laos, Afghanistan, and Nicaragua.
Cocaine entering the US overwhelmingly comes from Colombia, Peru, and Ecuador—not Venezuela. But political motives often shape enforcement actions more than evidence.
Former Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega worked with the CIA while enabling cartel shipments. Contra rebels in Nicaragua allegedly fueled the US crack epidemic. US soldiers have faced drug charges during anti-narcotics missions.
This isn’t a conspiracy. It’s documented history. 📜

Speaking from the Kremlin ahead of his visit to New Delhi for the 23rd India-Russia Annual Summit, Putin pointed out the hypocrisy: the U.S. keeps buying Russian nuclear fuel while pressuring India over oil imports.
His sharp remark? “America buys nuclear energy from us—and then they try to preach.”
