The first BRICS Seminar on Governance 2017 was held from August 17 to 18, 2017 in Quanzhou, Fujian Province, China. More than 160 dignitaries, scholars, senior executives from BRICS countries and other developing countries attended the seminar. The participants of the seminar unanimously agreed that as representatives of emerging markets and developing countries, BRICS countries had obtained valuable experience in state governance, and were exerting a greater influence on global governance. Therefore it would be necessary to hold this BRICS Seminar on Governance to share experiences in this regard.
