Do they have permanent secretariate like UNO ?

​

​

​

​

​

​

The G20 does not have a permanent secretariat or staff. Instead, the G20 Presidency rotates annually among the members and is selected from a different regional grouping of countries.

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

​

The 19 member countries are therefore divided up into five groups comprising a maximum of four countries each.

Most of the groups are formed on a regional basis, that is countries from the same region are usually put in the same group.

Something about its background ?

The G20 was founded in 1999 after the Asian financial crisis of 1997-98 as an informal forum for the

Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors of the most important industrialized and developing economies to

discuss international economic and financial stability

16 of 46

Something about its background ?�Elevation to Leaders’ level�

The G20 was upgraded to the level of Heads of State/Government in the wake of the global economic and financial crisis of 2007, and in 2009, when it became apparent that the necessary crisis coordination would only be possible at the highest political level.

Since then, the G20 Leaders have met regularly, and the G20 has become the premier forum for international economic cooperation.

The G20 Summit is held annually, under the leadership of a rotating Presidency.

The forum initially focused largely on broad macroeconomic issues, but it has since expanded its agenda to inter-alia include trade, climate change, sustainable development, health, agriculture, energy, environment, climate change, and anti-corruption.

17 of 46

Something about its background ?�Guest Countries and Invited International Organizations �

In addition to the member countries,19 countries (each G20 Presidency invites other guest countries and international organizations (IOs) to participate in the G20 meetings and Summit.

India has invited Bangladesh, Egypt, Mauritius, the Netherlands, Nigeria, Oman, Singapore, Spain and UAE as guest countries during its G20 Presidency.

For Guest IOs, India has invited ISA, CDRI and ADB in addition to the regular G20 International Organizations (UN, IMF, WB, WHO, WTO, ILO, FSB and OECD) and Chairs of Regional Organizations (AU, AUDA-NEPAD and ASEAN).

The G20 consists of two parallel tracks: the Finance Track and the Sherpa Track.

Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors lead the Finance Track while Sherpas lead the Sherpa Track after Finance Track.

The G20 process from the Sherpa side is coordinated by the Sherpas of member countries, who are personal emissaries of the Leaders.

Finance Track is led by Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors of the member countries.

Within the two tracks, there are thematically oriented working groups in which representatives from the relevant ministries of the members as well as from invited/guest countries and various international organisations participate.

  • The G20 Logo draws inspiration from the vibrant colours of India’s national flag – saffron, white and green, and blue.
  • It juxtaposes planet Earth with the lotus, India’s national flower that reflects growth amid challenges.
  • The Earth reflects India’s pro-planet approach to life, one in perfect harmony with nature.
  • Below the G20 logo is “Bharat”, written in the Devanagari script.
  • The theme of India’s G20 Presidency - “Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam” or “One Earth · One Family · One Future” - is drawn from the ancient Sanskrit text of the Maha Upanishad.

​

  • The theme also spotlights LiFE (Lifestyle for Environment), with its associated, environmentally sustainable and responsible choices, both at the level of individual lifestyles as well as national development, leading to globally transformative actions resulting in a cleaner, greener and bluer future.

The logo and the theme together convey a powerful message of India’s G20 Presidency, which is of striving for just and equitable growth for all in the world, as we navigate through these turbulent times, in a sustainable, holistic, responsible, and inclusive manner.

They represent a uniquely Indian approach to our G20 Presidency, of living in harmony with the surrounding ecosystem.
