Union Education Minister Pralhad Joshi joined the third day of the 13th BRICS Education Ministers’ Meeting in Bhubaneswar on Friday. The final day’s discussions are set to cover early childhood care and education, skill development, research and innovation, mutual recognition of qualifications, and educational leadership, according to official sources cited by OdishaTV.
Delegates from Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Indonesia, Iran, Ethiopia and the UAE attended the three-day meeting. Earlier sessions discussed institutional cooperation and future initiatives under the BRICS Education Track. Joshi welcomed the delegates and said their presence reflected a shared commitment to strengthening cooperation under the BRICS 2026 agenda.
The meeting should not be judged by ceremonial welcomes or broad promises of cooperation. Claims that a BRICS education track will quickly transform classrooms overlook the harder tasks of comparing qualifications, funding research and improving early education. The practical test is whether member countries publish a clear framework, timeline and list of participating institutions after the talks. Without those details, this remains diplomacy rather than delivery.
