What we do

Advocacy, Policy Engagement & Global Representation

CNGS engages governments, international institutions, and multilateral platforms to shape policies that reflect Global South priorities. Through official missions, high-level forums, and strategic advocacy—including at the UN, G20, and African Union—we promote inclusive, practical, and results-driven global decision-making.

Leadership & Institutional Development

CNGS invests in the next generation of changemakers through fellowships, capacity-building, and institutional partnerships. Our work empowers leaders to strengthen governance and drive sustainable impact at home and on the global stage.

Media & Strategic Communications

CNGS shapes global narratives by amplifying diverse voices and perspectives from the Global South. Through media engagement, thought leadership, and credible storytelling, we influence public discourse on global challenges.

Global Convening & Collaboration

We bring together policymakers, experts, and innovators through targeted roundtables, summits, and cross-sector forums. These gatherings build trust, foster partnerships, and turn dialogue into action.

Research & Strategic Insight

We produce actionable, regionally grounded research—from rapid policy briefs to in-depth reports—that equips decision-makers to respond to fast-moving challenges and brings Global South innovation into global policy debates.

Trade, Innovation & Private Sector Engagement

We explore emerging markets, innovation ecosystems, and trade opportunities across the Global South. By connecting governments, businesses, and development actors, we scale practical solutions and unlock pathways to equitable, sustainable growth.
