Brazil: G20 meeting in Brazil was preceded by a Social Summit and had a declaration approved by consensus highlighting the priorities of the Brazilian presidency

Agência Brasil

The Summit held in Brazil had some consensuses in its final document: Consolidation of the concepts of the Global Alliance against Hunger and Poverty. Reaffirmation of the role of the G20 as a cooperation forum with a vocation to support developing countries and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. Emphasis on the energy transition and the urgency of environmental action. Taxing large fortunes as one of the ways to finance the necessary changes on the international stage. Reforming the governance of multilateral institutions to make peace efforts more efficient and guarantee the preservation of human rights.

Ahead of the event, the G20 Social Summit also had a declaration proposing: among them, the progressive taxation of the super-rich, a reform of the UN Security Council and the establishment of a new international financing mechanism for the protection of tropical forests.
