About us

Global South World was established in 2023 to fill a gap created by the rise of populous, powerful nations outside of the traditional power structures which dominated geopolitics during the previous century.

In effect, international media organisations, focused on the disruption to their business operations caused by changing consumer habits, have not kept pace with changes in the wider world.

Global South World is backed by the Impactum Group. It has no ties to governments and operates with editorial independence. You can find its mission statement here.

Duncan Hooper is group consulting editor, working across sister titles including worldvisualized.com and theworldinmaps.co. Duncan has worked as a media executive at international brands including CGTN Europe, Microsoft and Euronews. You contact him at [email protected]Edward Sakyi is acting editor of Global South World.
