In a world confronted with unprecedented challenges and growing geopolitical rifts, is it time for a reformed and more balanced international order? What are the new propositions by the "Global South"? Are they necessarily at odds with the ones of the 'West"?

Seeking to answer these questions, the Italian Institute for International Political Studies (ISPI), the Observer Research Foundation (ORF) in India and the Policy Center for the New South (PCNS) in Morocco have embarked on the joint endeavor “Annual Trends Report”, involving experts from the three think tanks and beyond. This effort is in the context of a broader trilateral collaboration which also includes the Young Fellows Exchange Program, debates at the flagship events of the three Institutes and a yearly strategic retreat.
On behalf of ISPI, ORF and PCNS, we are delighted to launch the Annual Trends Report.
