IFPRI will participate in several meetings of the Group of Twenty (G20), by invitation of the 2019 Presidency, to provide substantive inputs and enrich the discussion. 

 

The G20 is an international forum, made up of 19 countries and the European Union, representing the world’s major developed and emerging economies. It is the premier forum for its members’ international economic cooperation and decision-making. Together, G20 members represent 85% of global GDP, 75% of international trade and two-thirds of the world’s population.  It reflects a recognition that global prosperity is interdependent and economic opportunities and challenges are interlinked.
