Peru will host the annual meeting of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) forum of its leaders from November 10 to 16 this year. Over the decades, APEC has evolved into a dynamic engine of economic growth and a pivotal regional forum in the Asia-Pacific region. APEC also increasingly recognizes the importance of engaging with Global South countries. This engagement fosters mutual economic benefit and sustainable development.
In this episode of THE HYPE, we delve into an in-depth discussion on APEC and its relationship with the Global South. Join CGTN’s host, Li Jingjing; Marcelo Vergaray, a Peruvian agricultural expert; Gisela Cernadas, an Argentine economist; and Chong Kar Fee, a Malaysian student at the College of Engineering at China Agricultural University, to explore how economic and agricultural connections can enhance trade opportunities and collaborative efforts to tackle global challenges like climate change and economic inequality.
