IBSA Dialogue Forum
The IBSA Dialogue Forum brings together three
large pluralistic, multicultural and multiracial
societies from three continents as a purely South-
South grouping of like-minded countries,
committed to inclusive sustainable development, in
pursuit of the well-being for their peoples and
those of the developing world. IBSA was
formalized and launched through the adoption of
the Brasilia Declaration on 6 June 2003.
How IBSA Formed
The idea of establishing IBSA was discussed at a
meeting between the then Prime Minister of India
and the then Presidents of Brazil and South Africa
in Evian on 2 June 2003 on the margins of the G-8
Summit. The grouping was formalized and named
the IBSA Dialogue Forum when the Foreign
Ministers of the three countries met in Brasilia on
6 June 2003 and issued the Brasilia Declaration.
