ABOUT BRICS
BRICS brings together five major emerging economies – Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa, comprising 43% of the world population, having 37% of the world GDP and 17% share in the world trade. BRICS cooperation has two pillars: consultation on issues of mutual interest through meetings of Leaders as well as of Ministers; and practical cooperation in many areas through meetings of Working Groups/Senior Officials. The BRICS Business Council was established during the 5th BRICS Summit held on March 2013 in Durban, South Africa. The objective of creating the council was to constitute a platform which will promote and strengthen business, trade, and investment ties amongst the business communities of the five BRICS countries; ensure that there is regular dialogue between the business communities of the BRICS nations and the Governments of the BRICS countries; and identify problems and bottlenecks to ensure greater economic, trade and investment ties amongst the BRICS countries and recommend solutions accordingly. Seven working groups in the areas of Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Financial Services, Energy & Green Economy, Skills Development, Agribusiness and Deregulation have been formed under the aegis of the BRICS Business Council. FICCI, the secretariat for the BRICS Business Forum, has also been designated as the nodal agency by the Government of India to act as the technical secretariat for the BRICS Business Council. As part of the various initiatives held under India’s Chairmanship, a research paper on required skill development in BRICS countries, workshop on skill development, and many more have been organized in the previous years. The various initiatives at BRICS forum lay a special focus on nurturing the Mathematical skills of children, which further cater to building their reasoning, critical thinking, problem solving and even effective communication skills. To contribute to this agenda, FICCI ARISE is delighted to partner with the BRICSMATH.COM and create an impact on the learning of Mathematical concepts among students..
