As digital transformation reshapes global governance, BRICS-T nations are leveraging digital technologies to enhance public service delivery, improve governance transparency, and foster regional collaboration. The study employs qualitative methods, including a thematic analysis of academic literature, policy documents, and expert interviews, to assess the state of digital governance, the opportunities and challenges of multilateral digital integration, and the potential for achieving the goals of Society 5.0. While countries like India and China have made significant strides, challenges such as digital inequality, cybersecurity concerns, and data sovereignty persist. The study highlights the potential for BRICS-T countries to adopt inclusive, human-centric digital governance models and collaborate regionally to foster a sustainable and equitable digital future. The alignment with Society 5.0 principles offers an opportunity for these nations to create digital societies that prioritize social well-being, economic inclusion, and environmental sustainability.
