Global experts called on countries across the Global South to seek development paths tailored to their own national conditions, strengthen unity and cooperation, and advance reforms to the global governance system.

Speaking at the Global South Modernization Forum held in Beijing on Friday, participants from home and abroad gathered to promote experience sharing and mutual learning among Global South countries in their modernization practices.

Li Shulei, member of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee and head of the Publicity Department of the CPC Central Committee, said countries of the Global South are reshaping the global economic landscape, emerging as a key force in the transformation of the international order, and injecting stability and positive momentum into global peace and development.
