Overview of the project:

The Group of Twenty (G20) is a forum for international economic cooperation.

It was established in 1999 as a platform for Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors to
discuss international economic and financial issues.

The G20 is made up of 19 countries, the European Union (EU), and the African Union (AU).

Together, the G20 countries account for almost two-thirds of the global population, 75% of global

 Origin of G20
The Group of Twenty (G20) was founded in 1999 as an informal forum
for finance ministers and central bank chiefs to discuss global
economic and financial issues. The G20 was created in response to the
1997-98 financial crisis. The first official meeting of the G20 was held in
Berlin in December 1999.
The G20 comprises the G-8 countries (Canada, France, Germany, Italy,
Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom, and the United States) plus the
European Union, Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia,
Mexico, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, and Turkey.

EVOLUTION FROM G7 TO G20:
The Group of Seven (G7) countries created the G20 in 1999. The G20
is a forum that includes the G7 and the next 13 largest economies,
including the European Union. The G20 was created to promote dialogue
between major industrial and emerging market countries.
The G7 Summits brought together leaders from the United States, Japan,
Germany, United Kingdom, France, Italy, and Canada. In 1999, following a
financial crisis in Asia, the G20 was created so that emerging markets
could be represented.
The G20 was foreshadowed at the Cologne summit of the G7 in June
1999, and formally established at the G7 Finance Ministers' meeting on 26
September 1999. The inaugural meeting was on 15–16 December 1999 in
Berlin.
Some members of the G20 have touted it as a replacement for the G7.
Here are some key milestones in the history of the G20:

 Formation

The G20 was formed in 1999 after the Asian financial crisis. It was created as a forum for finance
ministers and central bankers from 20 of the world's largest economies to discuss global economic
and financial issues.

 Elevation

In 2007, the G20 was elevated to include heads of state and government during the global economic
and financial crisis.

 Designation

In 2009, the G20 was designated the “premier forum for international economic cooperation”.

 Digital economy

The digital economy was included in the G20 agenda for the first time.

 Sustainable development

The 'G20 Action Plan on 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development' was adopted.

 Russia's aggression against Ukraine

Many G20 members, including Japan, emphasized the importance of observing the United Nations
Charter and achieving a just and lasting peace in Ukraine.

The G20 members currently account for more than 80% of world GDP, 75% of global trade, and 60%
of the global population. The G20 Summit is held annually, under the leadership of a rotating

virus posed an unprecedented challenge to public health systems globally.
2. Economic Fallout: Lockdowns, travel restrictions, and disruptions in supply chains
led to economic contractions, unemployment, and financial market volatility.
3. Need for a Coordinated Response: Addressing the pandemic's impact required
international cooperation to ensure effective public health measures and economic
support.

G20's Response: The G20, comprising leaders from the world's major economies,
became a crucial forum for addressing the multifaceted challenges posed by the
