Side Event G20 Brasil “Fighting Inequalities and Eradicating Poverty, Hunger and Malnutrition”

  • T20
  • 23 july 2024

By adopting the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in 2015, the international community recognized the need to address the complex global challenges of our time in a comprehensive and integrated manner, ensuring that economic growth, social inclusion, and environmental protection are pursued simultaneously to achieve a sustainable and equitable future for all.

Assuming the G20 Presidency, Brasil highlights social inequality and the fight against hunger and poverty as one of the main global challenges. By choosing these themes, the Brazilian government has outlined priority discussion topics within the G20, focusing, among other things, on responding to the climate emergency and reforming global governance.

On July 23rd, during the second day of the Ministerial Meeting on Development and before the Ministerial Meeting on the Global Alliance against Hunger and Poverty in Rio de Janeiro, CEBRI promoted the Side Event "Fighting Inequalities and Eradicating Poverty, Hunger, and Malnutrition”. The event promoted the relevance of addressing social inequality in an intersectional and integrated manner, leveraging investments in early childhood and strengthening cross-cutting public policies that promote racial and gender equality. The event was attended by Brazil's Minister of Planning and Budget, Simone Tebet, and the Minister of Social Development and Assistance, Family, and Fight Against Hunger, Wellington Dias.

The T20 Brasil Organizing Committee, by the Brazilian Center for International Relations (CEBRI), the Alexandre de Gusmão Foundation (FUNAG) and the Institute for Applied Economic Research (IPEA), was represented by the Executive Manager of T20 Brasil at CEBRI, Teresa Rossi, who moderated the panel, and the President of IPEA, Luciana Servo, who participated in the closing. The occasion was also marked by the delivery of the T20 Brasil Communiqué to Ministers Simone Tebet and Wellington Dias.
