Brazilians and Saudis discuss women’s inclusion

The Arab-Brazilian Chamber held a meeting between female leaders from Brazil and members of a Saudi delegation in São Paulo for the B20 Summit. The group shared experiences in business.

The Arab-Brazilian Chamber of Commerce (ABCC) hosted on Monday (21) an exchange of experiences between Brazilians and Saudis on the participation of women in business and in bilateral and multilateral relations between the countries. The institution organized a roundtable with female representatives from Brazilian business associations and executives from SABIC, a Saudi Arabia-based leading chemical company.

The Saudis are in Brazil to participate on Thursday (24) and Friday (25) in São Paulo in the B20 Summit, a group that brings together the private sector of the G20 member countries, of which Saudi Arabia and Brazil are part. SABIC is leading the Saudi delegation at the B20. During the meeting in the ABCC, SABIC representatives were introduced to the work of the institution’s women’s committee WAHI – Women Who Inspire, which organized the roundtable “Women, Diversity, and Inclusion.”

WAHI chairwoman Alessandra Frisso explained that the committee was created to empower and unite Brazilian and Arab female entrepreneurs and mentioned that platforms such as B20, BRICS, and the UN COP30 climate summit—the latter to be held in Brazil in 2025—can play major roles in advancing women’s inclusion and promoting diversity.

Frisso said WAHI is committed to promoting dialogue between Brazil and Saudi Arabia and shared the committee’s projects aimed at the Arab country. Plans include facilitating the visit of a Brazilian female delegation to Saudi Arabia in 2025, as well as welcoming a group of Saudi women to Brazil, in addition to promoting exchanges of knowledge, experiences, and opportunities among them.

The Saudis also learned about the role of Brazilian women in the BRICS Women’s Business Alliance (WBA

India is an ancient nation with a youthful population. India is known for its traditions. But the younger generation is also making it a hub of technology. Be it creative reels on Insta or real time payments, coding or quantum computing, machine learning or mobile apps, FinTech or data science, the youth of India are a great example of how a society can embrace latest technology. In India, technology is not only about innovation but also about inclusion. Today, digital platforms are empowering the rights and dignity of people, while protecting privacy.

In the last nine years, over a billion people got a unique digital biometric identity connected with their bank accounts and mobile phones. This digital public infrastructure helps us reach citizens within seconds with financial assistance.

माता भूमि: पुत्रो अहं पृथिव्या:

This means -the Earth is our Mother and we are her children.

Indian culture deeply respects the environment and our planet. While becoming the fastest growing economy, we grew our solar capacity by Two Thousand Three Hundred Percent! Yes, you heard it right – Two Thousand Three Hundred Percent!

We became the only G20 country to meet its Paris commitment. We made renewables account for over forty percent of our energy sources, nine years ahead of the target of 2030. But we did not stop there. This is a way to make sustainability a true people’s movement. Not leave it to be the job of governments alone.By being mindful in making choices, every individual can make a positive impact. Making sustainability a mass movement will help the world reach the Net Zero target faster. Our vision is pro-planet progress. Our vision is pro-planet prosperity. Our vision is pro-planet people.

And this year, the whole world is celebrating the International Year of Millets, to promote sustainable agriculture and nutrition alike. We reach out to others during disasters as first responders, as we do for our own. We share our modest resources with those who need them the most. We build capabilities, not dependencies.

That I think is the most humble and propatriotic way 😅

Cultivating Global Perspectives: SGMUN Conference

In today's interconnected world, fostering global perspectives among students is imperative. Recognizing this need, Bal Bharati Public School, Manesar, took a proactive step by organizing the Model United Nations (MUN) Conference in April, under the banner of SGMUN (Synergy Model United Nations). The conference served as a platform for young minds to engage in diplomacy, critical thinking, and problem-solving, echoing the ethos of the United Nations.

The SGMUN Conference held at Bal Bharati Public School, Manesar, was a testament to the school's commitment to holistic education. It brought together students from various schools, transcending geographical boundaries to simulate the workings of the United Nations. Through intense debates, negotiations, and resolutions, participants delved into multifaceted global issues, gaining insights into diplomacy and international relations.

One of the defining features of the SGMUN Conference was its diverse agenda, encompassing a wide array of topics spanning political, economic, social, and environmental domains. From climate change mitigation to human rights issues, delegates grappled with real-world challenges, assuming the roles of diplomats representing different countries. This experiential learning approach not only deepened their understanding of global affairs but also honed their research, public speaking, and negotiation skills.

The conference was structured to replicate the format of actual United Nations sessions, with committees such as the General Assembly, Security Council, Human Rights Council, G20,Lok Sabha, IPL and International Press. Each committee had its unique set of agendas, requiring delegates to analyze complex issues from multiple perspectives and collaborate to draft resolutions that address the underlying concerns.

Beyond the intellectual stimulation, the SGMUN Conference fostered a sense of camaraderie and teamwork among participants. Delegates engaged in spirited debates, advocating for their countries' interests while also seeking common ground to reach consensus. The diplomatic process unfolded dynamically, with delegates navigating alliances, drafting clauses, and negotiating terms, mirroring the complexities of real-world diplomacy.

Furthermore, the conference provided a platform for students to step into the shoes of global leaders, grappling with the responsibilities and challenges inherent in addressing pressing global issues. It encouraged them to think critically, empathize with diverse viewpoints, and envision innovative solutions to complex problems. Such experiences are invaluable in shaping future leaders who are equipped to navigate an increasingly interconnected and rapidly changing world.

The SGMUN Conference also highlighted the pivotal role of education in promoting global citizenship and fostering cross-cultural understanding. By engaging students in meaningful dialogue and collaboration, it instilled in them a sense of empathy, tolerance, and respect for diversity. Moreover, it empowered them to become agents of positive change in their communities, inspiring them to leverage their knowledge and skills for the greater good.

In conclusion, the SGMUN Conference organized by Bal Bharati Public School, Manesar, was a resounding success, encapsulating the spirit of international cooperation, dialogue, and innovation. Through stimulating debates, collaborative problem-solving, and experiential learning, it not only broadened students' horizons but also nurtured the values of global citizenship and leadership. As we navigate an increasingly complex and interconnected world, initiatives like the SGMUN Conference play a crucial role in shaping the next generation of global leaders and fostering a more peaceful, prosperous, and sustainable future. The event marked a significant milestone for the institution.

Tax Budget Highlights 2024

Income tax budget 2024 highlights: The nation’s finance ministry Nirmala Sitharaman asserts that there won't be any major amends to India's direct tax system for FY 2024–2025, or starting on April1,2024, despite the fact that the Finance Act 2024 modifies several income-tax regulations, such as how agricultural revenue is treated.

Nirmala Sitharaman, the finance minister of India has made it clear that, as of April 1, 2024 (FY 25), there would be no more modifications made to the income tax system, either old or new. Therefore, due to this reason, both the previous and the new regimes are still subject to the income tax slabs specified in the Union Budget for 2023–2024.

Some key points of budget

It is significant to remember that adjustments made to the previous year's budget will take effect for the current fiscal year. However, some new budget highlights are as follows:

Nirmala Sitharaman, the finance minister, highlighted five "Disha Nirdashak" baatein: Implementing social justice as a viable government model involves prioritizing the underprivileged, women, youth, and farmers; focusing on infrastructure; employing the latest technology to enhance production; and establishing a high-power committee to address issues with demographic shifts.

India has achieved three years of continuous 7% GDP growth, making it the G20's most rapidly expanding economy.

GDP stands for Performance, Government, and Development. We have improved economic management and delivered on development. Despite extremely difficult circumstances, we are reducing the fiscal deficit.

The government's capital expenditure program will not end, FM said, and it will be continued.

The India, Middle East, European Corridor (IMEC) project will go ahead in spite of the Red Sea setbacks.

According to Revenue Secretary Sanjay Malhotra, the exchequer would pay less than ₹3,500 crore for the removal of 1.1 crore pending minor direct tax requests for certain years.

FM reaffirmed that there will be no extension of the reduced tax rate to new industrial units starting beyond March 2024.

According to Tuhin Kanta Pandey, secretary of DIPAM, there is no set goal for disinvestment in FY25.

We are not only aligning with the previously given fiscal consolidation path, but we are also overextending it, according to a message from Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman to credit rating agencies.

According to Finance Secretary TV Somanathan, the goal of bringing the Center's debt-to-GDP ratio down to 40% was established prior to the COVID-19 period and needs to be reexamined.

Highlights from Interim budget 2024

The 2024 budget key highlights are as follows:

Direct Tax Proposal

The FM declared that for direct taxes, the same tax rates would be maintained in FY 2024–2025. Taxpayers earning up to Rs. 7 lakh will not be required to pay any taxes under the new tax system.

Existing domestic enterprises will pay corporation taxes at a rate of 22%, while some newly established manufacturing companies would pay taxes at a rate of 15%.

The FM declared that throughout the past ten years, direct tax collections have more than tripled, while the number of return filers has increased by 2.4 times.

The FM has suggested extending the deadline for several tax breaks for start-ups and investments made by pension and sovereign wealth funds. Additionally, the proposal calls for an exemption from paying taxes on a certain type of investment for units of the IFSC that will expire on March 31, 2024. This has been extended to March 31, 2025.

Goods and Services

The FM declared that in FY24, the total collection of GST on average has increased to Rs. 1.66 lakh crore each month.

The Finance Minister has announced that the tariffs on imports and customs rates will remain the same for the fiscal year 2024-2025.

Empowering the Youth

Training has been provided to 1.4 crore youth through the Skill India Mission.

Encouraging young people's dreams of becoming entrepreneurs: 43 crore loans were approved under the PM Mudra Yojana.

An amount of Rs. 1 lakh crore has been set aside to provide tech-savvy young people with a 50-year, interest-free loan with minimal or no interest charges for financing or re-financing.

Infrastructure and Investment

The government aims to implement three primary railway corridors under PM Gati Shakti: port connection, high traffic density corridor, energy, minerals, and cement. This will reduce costs and improve logistics efficiency.

Trade agreements between the two parties will be used to encourage foreign investment.

The UDAN program is dedicated to the expansion of existing airports as well as the construction of new airports to improve air connectivity. This initiative is expected to boost the tourism industry and promote economic growth in various regions of the country.

Agriculture and Food Processing

The government is intended to foster both public and private investment in post-harvest operations.

All agroclimatic zones will see an expansion in the use of Nano-DAP.

It is necessary to have a comprehensive strategy for the development of dairy products.

The Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana will be executed with greater zeal in an effort to double exports, expand employment opportunities, and enhance aquaculture productivity.

Budget 2024 summary

The budget 2024 summary presents a comprehensive analysis of the nation's economic well-being and the government's strategic priorities. Though it may not contain any groundbreaking proposals, it offers valuable information and a glimpse into the country's financial stance and future direction.

Budgeting is a vital tool for individuals and corporations alike, as it helps identify and allocate resources in a planned and efficient manner. Creating a budget can establish clear financial goals and objectives and develop a comprehensive plan.

It also helps minimize unnecessary expenses and maximize the use of available resources. Understanding the purpose and benefits of budgeting can go a long way in ensuring financial stability and success.

Empowering Agriculture: International Conference India

  A Milestone Event for Gender-Inclusive Agriculture

In a significant step towards promoting gender equality and resilience in agricultural practices, President of India, Smt. Droupadi Murmu will inaugurate the international research conference titled "From research to impact: Towards just and resilient agri-food systems" on October 9, 2023, at the NASC Complex in Pusa, New Delhi. This four-day conference is jointly hosted by the CGIAR GENDER Impact Platform and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR). The collaboration between these two institutions aims to harness national and international research to empower women to assume leadership roles and drive the transformation of agriculture and food systems on a global scale.   Notable Speakers on Gender-Inclusive Agriculture Among the distinguished speakers at the conference are Minister of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare Shri Narendra Singh Tomar, India's G20 Sherpa Shri Amitabh Kant, and CGIAR interim Executive Managing Director Professor Andrew Campbell.  

Fostering Women-Led Development

Dr. Himanshu Pathak, Director General of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), highlighted the conference's significance in the wake of the recent G20 Summit, which resoundingly endorsed women-led development. Dr. Pathak emphasized the importance of recognizing and promoting leadership and decision-making roles for women concerning climate change, food security, and nutrition.  

Bridging the Gap between Research and Practice

Dr. Nicoline de Haan, Director of the CGIAR GENDER Impact Platform, emphasized that the conference is designed to facilitate the exchange of cutting-edge knowledge and bridge the gap between research and practice. Its overarching goal is to cultivate gender-equal and socially inclusive, resilient food systems. Dr. de Haan stated that gender inequality in agri-food systems remains a significant global challenge, further exacerbated by crises like COVID-19 and climate change.   Tackling Gender Inequality in Agriculture Women frequently experience greater food insecurity and suffer more severe impacts from external shocks like floods and droughts. The conference aims to combine research, evidence, and practical insights to guide policymakers and investors toward solutions that promote global gender equality and women's empowerment.  

A Global Network of Researchers Unites

The CGIAR GENDER Impact Platform and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research are collaboratively assembling a global network of gender researchers, and they are actively bringing them together with other experts, practitioners, and policymakers. Together, their shared mission revolves around evaluating the current landscape of agricultural gender research and formulating innovative solutions to foster more equitable, just, and resilient agri-food systems.   A Diverse Program The event is set to feature an extensive program, including over 140 oral presentations, 85 posters, 25 high-level plenary and keynote speakers, and 60 parallel sessions. In addition, both international exhibitors and Indian women entrepreneurs will be present to showcase their work and innovations. Furthermore, the gathering will see participation from diverse delegates, representing a wide array of research institutes, national agricultural research and extension systems, non-government organizations, civil society organizations, funding partners, policy-making bodies, as well as the private sector.  

Forging a Path to Gender Equity in Agriculture

ICAR, in close collaboration with CGIAR and various research partners, persistently plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of India's 126 million smallholder farmers. As a CGIAR Impact Platform, GENDER actively seeks to broker knowledge, fostering the co-creation of agricultural solutions that benefit women and contribute to the establishment of equitable, resilient, and prosperous societies. This partnership with ICAR, recognized as one of the world's largest national agricultural research and extension systems, presents CGIAR and its research partners with an invaluable opportunity to seamlessly collaborate, connect with on-the-ground demand, and collectively strive to achieve substantial impact.  

Leveraging Expertise for Positive Outcomes

ICAR, with its 113 institutes and 76 agricultural universities spread across India, will be instrumental in identifying evidence-based priorities and innovations to translate G20 commitments on women's leadership in climate action, food security, and nutrition into tangible benefits for women and men farmers, as well as entire communities. CGIAR will contribute to this process by providing world-class expertise, evidence, and proven solutions.   Sources: THX News & Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare. Read the full article

India's Art and Craft Extravaganza, India's Artistic Showcase at G20

Showcasing India's Rich Art and Crafts at the G20 Summit: A Cultural Extravaganza 

In the grand tapestry of global diplomacy, the G20 Summit is a significant thread, bringing together the world's most influential leaders to discuss pressing issues. However, amidst the discussions on economics and politics, the host nation often seizes the opportunity to showcase its unique culture and heritage to the world. When India took the helm as host of the G20 Summit, it did so with a distinctive twist - by celebrating the nation's rich art and crafts. 

The Global Stage for Indian Artisans 

India's art and craft traditions are as diverse as the country itself. From intricate textiles to stunning jewelry, from ancient pottery to contemporary sculptures, India's artisans have been honing their craft for centuries. The G20 Summit provided a global stage for these skilled craftsmen and women to display their creations to an international audience. 

Craftsmanship Meets Diplomacy 

India's approach was unique. It saw the confluence of craftsmanship and diplomacy. The summit venue was transformed into a magnificent exhibition space, showcasing the best of Indian artistry. Visitors, including world leaders and delegates, were treated to a visual feast of textiles, paintings, jewelry, and more, each piece telling a story of India's cultural diversity. 

Empowering Artisans 

Behind the grandeur of the exhibition lay a powerful message - the empowerment of India's artisans. The summit served as a platform for these talented individuals to connect with global markets. It opened doors for collaborations, partnerships, and export opportunities that had the potential to transform their lives and preserve India's rich cultural heritage. 

Promoting Sustainable Practices 

In a world increasingly conscious of sustainability, India's artisanal products resonated deeply. The use of eco-friendly materials and traditional techniques underscored the importance of sustainable practices in crafting. These practices not only safeguard the environment but also ensure the livelihoods of countless artisans who rely on their craft for income. 

A Tapestry of Diversity 

What made India's showcase truly remarkable was its celebration of diversity. It wasn't limited to one region or one craft. It was a tapestry woven from threads of tradition and innovation, uniting artisans from various corners of the country. The display was a testament to India's "unity in diversity," a concept deeply ingrained in the nation's ethos.

 Cultural Diplomacy 

While the leaders engaged in discussions, the art and craft exhibition served as a form of cultural diplomacy. It allowed India to forge connections, build bridges, and foster goodwill with nations from around the world. It reminded the global community of India's cultural prowess and its commitment to preserving and promoting its heritage. 

A Legacy of Inspiration 

The impact of India's art and crafts showcase at the G20 Summit extended far beyond the event itself. It inspired a renewed interest in traditional crafts, both within the country and internationally. Artisans found new markets, art lovers discovered hidden treasures, and nations recognized the value of preserving their own unique heritage. 

A Cultural Diplomacy Triumph 

India's decision to showcase its art and crafts at the G20 Summit was more than just a cultural display; it was a triumph of cultural diplomacy. It highlighted the soft power of art and craft in building connections and fostering understanding between nations. India's rich cultural tapestry left an indelible mark on the global stage, reminding us that art and diplomacy can coexist beautifully, weaving a fabric of harmony and cooperation. 

India's G20 Summit art and craft exhibition was a celebration of heritage, a promotion of sustainability, and a testament to the power of culture in international diplomacy. It showcased the soul of a nation through the hands of its artisans, leaving an enduring legacy of art, diplomacy, and inspiration.

With an unprecedented coalition, Brazil brings social issues to the G20 stage

The nation has secured South Africa’s commitment to sustaining active public engagement

Following Brazil’s G20 presidency, set to conclude on November 30, civil society is expected to play a more substantial role in shaping discussions at the summit of the world’s 19 leading economies, plus the European and African Unions. This is the vision of Brazil’s Secretariat of the Presidency, which President Lula tasked with establishing the “Social G20,” a groundbreaking initiative in the forum’s history since its 1999 inception.

Gustavo Westmann, head of the Special Office for International Affairs at the Secretariat of the Brazilian Presidency and a member of the G20 Social Summit’s organizing committee, underscores the initiative’s goal of fostering discussions beyond closed doors. Another intended legacy of the Social G20 is empowering societies to hold their governments accountable for pressing global issues.

“Along with broadening the base of social participation, the Social G20 platform introduces conversations that often don’t happen behind closed doors due to the member countries’ diverse backgrounds,” Mr. Westmann explains.

The Social G20 Summit will culminate the civil society engagement process just before the G20 meeting in Rio on November 18-19. Scheduled for November 14-16 at Praça Mauá and Olympic Boulevard, the summit will feature approximately 300 events and represent over a thousand organizations.
