Secondly, as envisaged in 2015 Ufa declaration, cooperation between the five countries is mutual and premised on a shared and common vision of an alternative world economic and development system that is sensitive to the interest of the South.
Therefore it becomes important that the BRICS nations develop a methodology to uniformly measure their progress over time, a set of development indicators through which progress can be assessed. Aligned to these development indicators should be a set of well-defined targets that are both unambiguous and measurable towards the attainment of, among others, the 2030 Long Term Strategic ideals. Each BRICS country should be in a position to annually report its progress against the set indicators and set targets.
