Research institute provides background information, context, and discussion
The GIGA German Institute of Global and Area Studies launched its G20-related activities last night in Hamburg with a panel discussion featuring high-profile speakers. Prof. Amrita Narlikar, president of the GIGA, presented her analysis “Can the G20 Save Globalisation?” to the audience of 100 invited guests, which included scholars, political decision makers, representatives of the diplomatic corps, and journalists. In this first issue of a thematic series dedicated to the G20 and G20-related questions, Prof. Narlikar examines which strengths the G20 can draw upon to effectively tackle the current globalisation crisis. She also highlights the unique opportunity presented by the German G20 presidency. Distinguished Member of Parliament Niels Annen emphasised the importance of the G20 summit in Hamburg as providing a valuable chance for world leaders to meet informally and exchange ideas. Prof. Nele Noesselt and Prof. Roberto Bouzas offered insightful perspectives from China and Argentina, respectively.
In the run-up to the G20 summit, to take place this year in Hamburg on 7 and 8 July, additional articles by GIGA researchers presenting findings from Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East regarding various aspects of the G20 will also be published. The articles in the GIGA Focus series are available free of charge on the GIGA website.
The GIGA will host and contribute to various events in advance of the 2017 G20 summit, presenting its research on the challenges and opportunities facing the G20 for discussion, and incorporating the views of diverse world regions in the process. In dialogue with academics and decision makers, as well as with interested members of the public, the institute will make available its most recent academic findings.
Highlights will include a panel discussion entitled “The G20 amidst Global Transition: Expectations and Hopes, Risks and Challenges“ with the federal government’s G20 representative, Prof. Lars-Hendrik Röller on 17 June.
