In the 8<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0meeting of BRICS education Ministers that was\u00a0 held as part of the 13<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0BRICS Summit being hosted by India, ministers deliberated on two themes &#8211;\u00a0<em>Leveraging digital and technological solutions for ensuring inclusive and equitable quality education<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>enhancing research and academic collaboration.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Regarding\u00a0 the need to leverage digital and technological solutions for ensuring quality inclusive education, the member states agreed to generate and expand their\u00a0knowledge base that would help formulate initiatives in this regard. They also agreed to facilitate creation of mechanisms that would allow sharing of knowledge and best practices with each other. These could include seminars, policy dialogues, interactions with experts, to name a few.<\/p>\n<p>In order to enhance their collaboration in academics and research, the the ministers agreed on facilitating the mobility of students and faculty among BRICS partner states, besides encouraging joint and dual degrees between higher education institutions in BRICS countries. They also recognized Technical and Vocational Training and Education as a priority area for every BRICS country and expressed their commitment to promoting collaboration in this area.<\/p>\n<p>Chairing the meeting Shri Sanjay\u00a0Dhotre, Union Minister of State for Education,\u00a0Communications and Electronics &amp; Information Technology said that India\u00a0acknowledges the concerted efforts being made by students, teachers, parents, communities and governments across the world to mitigate the effects of the pandemic and build back a more resilient education system. He underscored the importance of multilateral cooperation, especially among the BRICS nations,\u00a0\u00a0 for\u00a0 harnessing the full potential of education .<\/p>\n<p>Shri Dhotre further said that online learning and digital delivery of education have emerged as important means for achieving\u00a0\u00a0 education sector development goals and targets set by each BRICS country. It is therefore necessary that\u00a0 we\u00a0 recognize the importance of leveraging\u00a0 technology to promote access to inclusive and equitable quality education for all.<\/p>\n<p>The BRICS Education Ministers also shared the policies and initiatives that each country launched to mitigate the effects of the Covid 19 pandemic on education. Speaking for India Shri Dhotre informed about our initiatives under PM eVidya for providing access to quality education through multi-modal means . He spoke of SWAYAM MOOCS platform, SWAYAM PRABHA TV Channels, DIKSHA,\u00a0 Virtual labs .<\/p>\n<p>Shri Dhotre\u00a0further said that while\u00a0India realizes the potential of\u00a0 digital and technological solutions for achieving the goal of inclusive and equitable quality education, we also acknowledge the need to\u00a0 reduce and eventually eliminate the digital divide that restricts full realization of this\u00a0\u00a0 potential. There is, therefore, a need to intensify efforts to eliminate disparity in access to digital resources, including digital devices, especially in the case of socially and economically disadvantaged population groups. In this context he said that India is rapidly expanding digital infrastructure through the Digital India Campaign and FTTH connectivity.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to today\u2019s meeting, the International Governing Board of the BRICS Network Universities had met on the 29<sup>th<\/sup>\u00a0of June, to take a look at\u00a0 the progress made by member states under this initiative so far, and discuss ways to take it further.
