South African Institute of International Affairs (SAIIA), German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE)


Building on a special issue of the South African Journal of International Affairs entitled “A decade of G20 summitry: Assessing the benefits, limitations and future of global club governance in turbulent times”, the webinar considered the G20’s response to the current Covid-19 pandemic as a global health, economic and geopolitical crisis.

How does the current crisis response (or the lack thereof) by the G20 compare with the role of the group during the global financial crisis more than ten years ago? How has the G20 as a club governance format evolved during the past 10 years? What should the G20 do in the current situation and how can it achieve those policy goals with a view to the upcoming leaders’ summit in Riyadh in November 2020? These and other questions were up for discussion, with a view to engaging policymakers in the G20.

The webinar was conducted in an interactive manner and allowed for questions by participants. The webinar had the following agenda and speakers:
