Summary

The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation: a security and economic organisation founded in 2001.

Today’s SCO members account for 42% of the world’s people (2025), 23% of the world’s GDP (2025), 23% of the world’s military spending (2025; 9 of 10 members have figures) and 50% of the world’s CO2 emissions (2024). Together they mine 84% of the world’s tungsten and 80% of the world’s natural graphite (USGS, 2025, estimated). They produce 99.7% of the world’s primary gallium (USGS, 2025, estimated). Of its members, 6 are also in the CIS, 5 in the CSTO, 4 in BRICS and 4 in the Eurasian Economic Union.

Membership is as each grouping lists it. A grouping’s share of the world adds up its members’ figures, against the sum for every country with a figure.
