A Strategic Hub for Innovation, Peace, and Sustainable Development in the Global South

Bridging Divides. Building Futures.

The launch of the Global South Centre for Research, Innovation, Peace and Technology for Sustainable Development (G-SCRIPTS-D) marks a bold step toward reshaping the future of international cooperation.

Conceived under the Africa-Asia Scholars Global Network (AASGON) and the Global South Economic Forum (GSEF), the Centre positions the Global South not as a recipient of aid, but as a driver of global change.

“This is about amplifying the Global South’s voice and creating a fairer, more inclusive world.”

AASGON Founder & Group Executive President

🌱 Origins of G-SCRIPTS-D

In 2023, AASGON convened a 24-week global webinar series, bringing together technocrats, scholars, and change-makers across regions.
This collaboration led to the emergence of G-SCRIPTS-D as a THINK-TANK, dedicated to equity-driven global transformation.

🎯 A Mission Rooted in Equity

At its core, G-SCRIPTS-D is a strategic think tank and innovation hub with a clear mission:

To rebuild fractured systems of global governance through research, peacebuilding, and sustainable technologies.

⚖ Reforming the Rules of the Game

One of the Centre’s boldest commitments is to reform the global financial architecture.

For decades, developing nations have argued that existing systems deepen inequality.
Through policy-driven research and inclusive dialogue platforms, G-SCRIPTS-D seeks to make the Global South a rule-maker, not merely a rule-taker.

🕊 Innovation, Peace & Dialogue

What sets G-SCRIPTS-D apart is its unique integration of peacebuilding with technology and development.

Innovation is used not only for economic growth, but also as a tool for conflict resolution and social cohesion.

  • Global governance
  • Sustainability
  • Innovation

Its promise is clear and ambitious:

✨ Chart a path toward a more equitable global order
