"The GGI strives to promote the building of a more just and equitable global governance system and work together for a community with a shared future for humanity," Balew Demissie, an Ethiopian expert, told Xinhua. ADDIS ABABA, Sept. 21 (Xinhua) -- The recent China-proposed Global Governance Initiative (GGI) is a strategic framework that could reshape international cooperation, according to an Ethiopian expert. In an era of profound uncertainty, marked by geopolitical rivalries, climate change and widening development disparities, global governance is under strain. By emphasizing sovereign equality, the rule of law, multilateralism, people-centered development and pragmatic outcomes, the GGI can transform global governance from a battleground of competing powers into a collaborative platform for humanity's collective resilience, he said. The GGI sees the international rule of law as a safeguard for global governance.
