The United Nations Office for South-South Cooperation was designated the secretariat of the BAPA+40 preparatory process (71/244), and on 30 August 2017 a modalities resolution (71/318) was agreed deciding that the Second High-level United Nations Conference on South- South Cooperation:

          held on 22 March, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.;
         (e) was to result in a concise, focused, forward-looking and action-oriented intergovernmentally agreed outcome;
         (f) also was to result in summaries by the Chair.

All States of the United Nations system, as well as intergovernmental organizations with observer status with the United Nations General Assembly and United Nations specialized agencies and other entities of the United Nations system, were invited to participate in the Conference. Also invited were Non-Governmental Organizations and public and private sector development partners of the United Nations.

The General Assembly has described South-South cooperation as “an important element of international cooperation for development, which offers viable opportunities for developing countries in their individual and collective pursuits of sustained economic growth and sustainable development,” emphasizing that South-South cooperation is not a substitute for, but is complementary to North-South cooperation.
