Multilateral cooperation was being put to the test by growing divisions and confrontation well before the COVID-19 crisis. With the pandemic taking a heavy toll on human life, triggering a deep world recession and accelerating global trends, redoubling multilateral efforts is even more crucial today in many fields, from global health and climate change to sustainable development goals and digital transformation. The Group of Twenty (G20) is the most important multilateral forum, and its action needs to be given new life to provide effective responses.
In particular, key questions emerge in view of the Italian presidency of the G20 in 2021: Which multilateral responses are needed in a post-COVID-19 world? Is the G20 format still fit to provide effective responses? How can the G20 further strengthen its action? Which priorities and tools are key to a successful Italian G20 presidency?
