The Conference of the New Emerging Forces (CONEFO) was an intergovernmental organization that existed from 1965 to 1966. CONEFO was the idea of President Sukarno of Indonesia, which he put forward in a speech at the UN General Assembly on 30 September 1960 entitled "To Build the World Anew" to reform the UN and in early 1965 this idea evolved into creating a new bloc of "emerging countries" that would be an alternative power centre to the United Nations and to the "old-established forces" — a category in which Sukarno included both the United States and the Soviet Union. It was intended to build on the legacy of the 1955 Bandung Conference and the Non-Aligned Movement, by asserting the interests of the Third World and a neutral posture towards the Cold War.
