SUSTG is covering the events and meetings taking place in the run up to the G20 in November as part of our “Road to the G20” series of posts and featured items. This week, Saudi Arabia will host the Y20 youth-focused group, as well as finance-focused meetings.
The Y20 is the official platform for young people in G20 countries and beyond.
The Y20 Youth Summit, beginning today, is a youth-led event bringing young leaders from across G20 countries to discuss and debate the G20 Leaders’ agenda. The Summit concludes with the drafting of the Y20 Communiqué.
The delegates will “develop their skills and networks, and identify the most pressing economic challenges and opportunities facing young people today. The Y20 is a forum for developing cooperation with the future generation, and provides a platform for young people to have their voices heard on issues relevant to the G20 agenda.”
Here is the list of all the events by day for this week*:
