On April 28-29, 2016 New Delhi hosted a BRICS international conference on cybersecurity and combating cyber threats.

On April 28, the opening session of the conference was followed by a session on the BRICS countries’ institutional cooperation on information security. Representatives of member countries briefed the participants of the conference on the role of their respective states in promoting information security dialogue, and discussed common threats and opportunities.

RIAC Program Coordinator Anna Kuznetsova represented the Russian side at the session. She spoke about the initiatives of the Russian Federation at the international level and at the level of state policy.

“The dialogue on information security among our countries should be viewed, first and foremost, as a space for joint efforts of our states, rather than a dividing factor. This dialogue can become a powerful tool of soft power in the international arena”, Anna Kuznetsova said.

The two-day discussion at the conference covered the prospects for economic, political and social cooperation within the framework of an information dialogue among the countries.

On April 29, Anna Kuznetsova spoke at a session devoted to issues of social inclusion and Internet technologies. She emphasized the importance of disseminating educational products and services of the BRICS countries through the Internet, and submitted the RIAC report on university e-internationalization.

Anna Kuznetsova also held a number of meetings with representatives of Indian think tanks, involved in the study of international relations. During the meetings, the sides discussed various issues of promoting cooperation between their organizations.
