The world is facing multiple crises. From tackling the consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic to the reinvigoration of the global economy under the new paradigm of a “green and just transition” - there are many issues, which need an intensified effort of international collaboration.
The Think20 is the engagement group of the G20 bringing together leading think tanks and research centres worldwide. It aims to provide research-based policy recommendations to the G20 leaders. However, in an interconnected world, the Think20 (T20) needs to go beyond its own circle of members and to engage the wider community.
To make the voices from the non-G20 heard, the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS) in cooperation with the T20 national coordinator and chair ISPI (Italian Institute for International Political Studies) organize the T20 associated digital conference “Towards effective multilateralism in unprecedented times: The perspective of the non-G20”.
