With BRICS expanding from its original five members to a broader grouping of 11 countries, alongside partner countries, its role in global cooperation is evolving. In this episode of The Hype, we bring together guests from Brazil, Russia, India, Ethiopia and Kazakhstan to share how they understand BRICS and what it means to their generation. From youth opportunities and cross-country learning to AI, digital skills and the impact of BRICS cooperation on everyday life, the conversation looks beyond numbers and institutions to ask a more personal question: what can BRICS offer young people today, and what role can they play in shaping what comes next?
