The South Commission was established in 1987 at the Non-Aligned Summit Meeting held in Harare in September 1986. The Commission consisted of distinguished individuals from the South who had different backgrounds and political persuasions. The Commission functioned as an independent body, with its members serving in their personal capacities. Its term was set for three years and its work was financed by contributions from the developing countries. The Commission's Secretariat was established in Geneva with the assistance from the Government of Switzerland. 5, record 1, English, - South%20Centre
