South Africa’s G20 Presidency is Opportunity for Africa
South Africa's leadership of the G20 and the African Union's recent inclusion in the group give Africa a seat at the table among the world’s 20 largest economies — a critical platform to influence global decisions, Claver Gatete, Executive Secretary of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa, told Sputnik Africa.
Being part of the G20 allows Africa to:
🟠Shape the agenda,
🟠Highlight key issues such as finance, debt, climate change, and development financing.
"Otherwise, how else would the African issues surface for the discussion by the 20 richest countries in the world. So that's why it is very, very important that this time it was our own."
