Think20 (T20) Brazil 2024: Let's rethink the world
The T20 is a G20 engagement group that brings together think tanks and research centers from G20 members and guest countries and organizations. Think tanks can contribute to the T20 in various formats, such as participating in the T20 conferences and meetings, proposing and organizing side events, submitting policy briefs, and joining the task force activities.
Following the principles of inclusiveness, representativeness, and effectiveness, T20 Brazil seeks to engage many national and foreign think tanks, promote balanced regional representation, and have a broader impact on the G20 official policy processes (Finance and Sherpa tracks).
T20 Brazil fosters stronger links with other engagement groups. This collaborative approach ensures that the recommendations and policy options produced as part of the T20 Brasil discussions reflect a comprehensive understanding of the issues at stake. Such comprehensive understanding enjoys stronger support and legitimacy, further enhancing the T20’s influence.
