BRICS CCI Announces BRICS Annual Recognition Award 2023-24

In a world marked by dynamic shifts and complex global challenges, the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) nations have consistently demonstrated their collective strength and influence on the international stage. In keeping with this spirit of cooperation and shared ambitions, the India chapter of the BRICS Chamber of Commerce & Industry is honored to unveil the highly-anticipated BRICS Annual Recognition Award (BARA) for the year 2023-24. This initiative is poised to foster collaboration, innovation, and sustainable development while celebrating excellence across diverse domains.

Investing in Our Planeta

Under the overarching theme of “Invest in Our Planet,” these Awards endeavor to commend and encourage responsible business practices and excellence in the realms of education, health, and environmental stewardship within the BRICS nations. These awards are meticulously crafted to commend sustainability, ethical comportment, and the positive societal and environmental impacts achieved by organizations, individuals, and institutions.

The BRICS CCI Awards’ mandate transcends mere recognition; it constitutes a clarion call to instigate positive change within the BRICS community. It enjoins organizations to accord precedence to sustainability, ethical conduct, and substantial contributions to society and the environment across their operations. These awards not only seek to honor those who have established exemplary benchmarks but also aspire to ignite emulation and catalyze transformative endeavors across various sectors.

Diverse Categories, Singular Vision

The BRICS Annual Recognition Awards will encompass a comprehensive spectrum of categories, encompassing international policies & diplomacy, science & technology, social & cultural exchange, sustainability & environment, and leadership roles. Each category is thoughtfully tailored to extol and commemorate individuals and entities who have made commendable contributions in consonance with the vision of reformed multilateralism, as articulated during the BRICS Summit 2020 by the Hon’ble Prime Minister of India.

A Multifaceted Celebration

The BRICS-CCI Awards transcend the mere contours of an awards program; it represents a vivacious celebration of the rich cultural and ethnic diversity that characterizes the BRICS nations. The awards ceremony promises to be a grand affair, featuring captivating cultural performances hailing from each member nation. Traditional dances, mellifluous musical renditions, and martial arts displays will collectively illuminate the vibrant tapestry of cultures within the BRICS alliance. Eminent dignitaries, distinguished personalities, and celebrated figures from each BRICS country, each possessing a profound connection to their respective award categories, will grace the event, thereby imbuing it with an elevated sense of prestige and credibility.

Dr. Sushi Singh, President of BRICS CCI’s Centre for CSR, expounds on the profound mission underpinning BRICS Annual Recognition Awards: “BARA aspires to champion sustainability and usher in lifestyle changes, thereby recognizing the contributions of both emerging talents and seasoned achievers from all BRICS member nations.” It serves as a rallying cry for a collective commitment to a sustainable future, wherein responsible business practices and innovation serve as potent instruments for ushering in enduring positive transformations.

“As we cast our gaze forward to the BRICS Annual Recognition Award 2023-24, anchored in the thematic premise of “Invest in Our Planet,” we extend a cordial invitation to industries, organizations, educational institutions, media houses, and individuals hailing from the BRICS nations. We urge you to step forward and exhibit your remarkable endeavors.
