Our connection with the G20
The GI Hub was created in 2014 by the Group of Twenty (G20) to advance its infrastructure agenda.
The G20 is the premier forum for international economic cooperation, bringing together the leaders of 19 countries from every continent (Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Korea, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Russia, Türkiye, the UK, and the United States), and two regional bodies: the African Union and the European Union.
Collectively, G20 members represent around 85% of the world’s economic output, more than 75% of international trade, and two-thirds of global population. The G20 has annually rotating presidencies and representatives from G20 countries meet throughout the year culminating in an annual Summit between the Heads of State or government of the member countries to discuss financial and socioeconomic issues.
In April 2024, the GI Hub became an associated Global Knowledge Trust Fund of the Public-Private Infrastructure Advisory Facility (PPIAF) with a funding contribution from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. This was following a review by the G20 and the GI Hub Board of Directors that affirmed the GI Hub’s value and recommended it be embedded in the international system to facilitate its delivery of multilateral, multi-year initiatives without a need to periodically renew its G20 mandate.
The GI Hub continues to participate in relevant G20 forums and discussions related to infrastructure and delivers work contributing to the G20 infrastructure agenda.
