What is be the focus of the G20 Summit in 2023?
- This Leaders’ Summit, together with the work done throughout the year via Ministerial Meetings, Working Groups, and Engagement Groups, is the culmination of the process.
- The Indian Administration will also place an emphasis on Living for the Environment (LiFE). It will also emphasize environmentally responsible and environmentally friendly choices at both the individual and national levels of development in order to achieve a cleaner, greener, and bluer future.
- Agriculture, anti-corruption, culture, digital economy, disaster risk reduction, development, education, environment and climate sustainability, energy transitions, employment, health, trade and investment, and tourism will be the focus of the Working Groups.
What has happened until this point?
To begin, according to India’s sherpa Amitabh Kant, the New Delhi Leaders’ Declaration of the G20 is nearly finished and will be given to the grouping’s leaders to secure consensus.
Kant announced at a press conference prior to the G20 Leaders’ Summit on September 9-10 that he would divulge more about the announcement, also known as a collective communique, after it was ratified by the leaders. He did, however, state that the proclamation would incorporate the opinions of the global south and poor nations.
PM Modi and his Bangladesh colleague Sheikh Hasina met in New Delhi and signed three memorandums of understanding (MoUs), notably one on collaboration in digital payment processes.
The African Union formally joined the summit on Saturday at the request of summit organizer and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Let’s take a look at the entire G20 Summit schedule.
G20 Summit Full Schedule
September 3-6: 4th Sherpa Meeting
September 5-6: Finance Deputies Meeting
September 6: Joint Sherpas and Finance Deputies Meeting
September 9 – 10: Meeting of Ministers at the G20 Summit
September 13-14: 4th Sustainable Finance Working Group Meeting in Varanasi
September 14 – 16: 4th Meeting for the Global Partnership for Financial Inclusion in Mumbai

How is the G20 presidency chosen?
At the Bali summit, Indonesian President Joko Widodo officially handed over the summit presidency to India and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. But how is this President selected? To begin with, the G20 does not have a headquarters; it is an informal collection that, unlike the United Nations (UN), does not have a permanent administration or employees.
On December 1, 2016, Germany assumed the presidency of the summit and began working under the so-called G20 Troika, which stands for three things: the past, the present, and the future. The Troika, which includes Indonesia (the previous presidency), India (the current presidency), and Brazil (the incoming presidency), supports the Presidency.
G20 Summit 2023: Logo
Because the G20 Summit is being held in India, the logo is based on our national flag and features the brilliant hues of the ‘Tiranga,’ namely saffron, white, green, and blue. The wonderful blend of white, green, and blue lotus with the Earth contributes to the attractiveness of this logo. At a time when global warming is causing significant loss of life, property, and resources, the earth logo emphasizes the importance of taking an environmentally sensitive approach. In addition, ‘Bharat’ is written in Devanagari script beneath the G20 logo.
G20 Summit 2023: Theme
The overall concept of the G20 Summit 2023 is “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam,” or “One Earth, One Family, One Future,” derived from an ancient Sanskrit book known as the Maha Upanishad. This subject communicates the sense of global solidarity and would make an excellent motto for an international organization. It recognizes the worth of humans, animals, plants, and microorganisms, as well as their interdependence on Earth and in the universe.
Who will be present at the G20 Summit in 2023?
US President Joe Biden, British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese will all attend the event, although Chinese President Xi Jinping will most likely miss it because it is being held during India’s presidency.
Who are the members of the G20?
Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Republic of Korea, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United States comprise the Group of Twenty (G20), as does the European Union.
