Since its establishment in 2016 in Colombia, SSCC, a global network for south-south dialogue, has joined forces with many policy makers and academic experts across the global south to seek novel mechanisms for strengthening peace and popularizing and implementing sustainable development goals.

It has expanded its operations in the Americas, Africa, Arab world and Asia/Pacific and has embarked on a series of concrete programmes.
They include cultural diplomacy and using arts to contribute to the culture of peace. The programmes, and SSCC chief players are described in greater detail on the website.
