G20 in Brazil and South Africa : Priorities, Agendas and Voices of the Global South

Abstract

This book examines key issues and priorities of the G20 from the perspective of the countries of the Global South, with a particular focus on the Brazilian and South African presidencies in 2024 and 2025. It aims to identify key agendas and policy propositions that consider the specific realities of developing countries. By identifying points of convergence and divergence between Brazil's and South Africa's agendas, the book explores how these countries have sought to shape global discussions and contribute to solutions to pressing global challenges from a Global South perspective. In doing so, it seeks to fill an essential gap in the prioritization of issues and representation of voices from the Global South within the G20.
