The Global South refers to countries located mainly in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean. These regions are often characterised by diverse cultures, rapid urbanisation and economic challenges. Countries in the Global South are typically developing or newly industrialised, with varying levels of infrastructure and access to resources. Despite the challenges, many nations in the Global South are experiencing growth and improving living standards through innovation and international cooperation. The term "Global South" highlights their shared interests in economic development, social progress, and cultural diversity, distinct from the wealthier countries of the Global North. It emphasises the importance of global partnerships and policies that promote inclusive growth and sustainability across these dynamic regions. This book presents the complex subject of social policies in the Global South in the most comprehensible and easy to understand language. The book studies, analyses and upholds the pillars of social policy-making and its utmost significance in modern times. Through this book, we attempt to further enlighten the readers about the new concepts in this field.
