Originally, it appeared as ‘BRIC’ to highlight the promising emerging economies of Brazil, Russia, India, and China. After being joined by South Africa in 2011, the BRICS countries have qualified their institutional setting as a ‘dialogue and cooperation platform’ and organised regular meetings among different levels of governments. In 2015, the leading universities from the BRICS countries adopted the Beijing Consensus, which resulted in a decision to establish a BRICS Universities League. In 2016, they took the next step in that direction and agreed to set up the BRICS Network University. The first general conference of the BRICS Network University was held in Yekaterinburg between 6 and 9 April, 2016. In 2017, the BRICS Network University members gathered in Zhengzhou, hosted by the North China University of Water Resources and Electric Power. Today the BRICS Network University consists of 9 universities from Brazil, 11 universities from China, 12 universities from India, 12 universities from Russia, and 12 universities from South Africa.
