The G20 Social's goal is to increase the participation of non-governmental stakeholders in G20 activities and decision-making processes. During the Brazilian presidency, the G20 will carry a special motto: “Building a Just World and a Sustainable Planet.”

As part of a plural, diverse country with authority to address fundamental, issues such as climate change and the fight against hunger and poverty, the G20 Social will ensure space for many voices, struggles and demands of populations and non-governmental stakeholders from member countries that are the world's largest economies.
