Connect with the GI Hub to contribute to improving infrastructure

The GI Hub strongly believes in the importance and value of collaboration across the infrastructure community to achieve common goals for better quality infrastructure.

As a global entity, independent of commercial objectives, we are uniquely positioned to create connections and help foster collaboration across the public and private sectors, academia, development banks, and other international organisations. Our connection with the G20 further increases the visibility of our work and its impact.

There are many ways to connect and collaborate with us, as an individual or organisation. We welcome you to learn more about us and get involved through any of the opportunities highlighted below.

Expert engagement groups

The GI Hub convenes expert engagement groups to share perspectives, advise, and collaborate on issues that have global impacts. Although participation in these groups is by invitation, we encourage individuals and organisations who are interested in getting involved to contact us.

Infrastructure Body (I-Body) Forum

The I-Body Forum brings together I-Bodies from around the world to address common challenges, share experiences, and accelerate the adoption of best practice. The forum is convened by the GI Hub in partnership with Infrastructure Australia and engages with a group of infrastructure bodies dedicated to sharing industry best practice.

Academic Advisory Panel

The Academic Advisory Panel convenes academics from around the world to share advice, input, and feedback on the GI Hub’s work and the G20 infrastructure agenda. Panel members represent 10 of the G20 member and guest economies and have substantial knowledge of infrastructure markets and systems, finance and economics, engineering, business, sustainability and energy efficiency, climate change, capacity building, and more. Learn more and see the members

Private Sector Advisory Panel

The Private Sector Advisory Council tackles the question: ‘How do we increase private sector participation in sustainable infrastructure?’ With a focus on public-private collaboration and advancing ideas to the G20 Finance Track, the council meets quarterly for consultation and discussion. The PSAC panel of senior, global private sector experts is chaired by the GI Hub’s CEO, Marie Lam-Frendo. Learn more and see the members

Consult or partner on projects and initiatives

We are currently inviting contributions on the following:

  • We are examining the regulatory capital treatment of infrastructure investments and how this treatment affects private sector financing of infrastructure. If you work in commercial or investment banking, and have knowledge of regulatory capital treatments of infrastructure investment, you may be interested in providing input about this topic and/or joining our coalition of bank stakeholders. The findings and recommendations of this coalition will be presented to the G20 Presidency, Financial Stability Board (FSB), and Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) Secretariat. To learn more, register your interest.
  • Our initiative on Infrastructure and the Circular Economy is inviting involvement and contributions. Click through to learn more.
  • We are inviting feedback on our Shorthand Tool for Cost-Benefit Analysis, which focuses on estimating economic, social, and environmental (ESE) impacts of infrastructure. Click through to learn more.

Organisations interested in partnering with us on one of their own initiatives or on a specific topic can contact us.

Listen to our podcast

‘Innovating Infrastructure’ is the GI Hub’s podcast that showcases discussions on topics and innovations related to advancing the delivery of sustainable, resilient, and inclusive infrastructure. We collaborate with the public and private sectors to produce insights that help improve infrastructure delivery and decisionmaking and promote the adoption and development of InfraTech. To listen to our podcast, go here.

Season 2: Rethinking infrastructure delivery

Many of the challenges that arise in infrastructure delivery stem from the selection of the delivery model at an early-stage. How can we improve the way we deliver infrastructure?

Season two of Innovating Infrastructure explores answers to that very question. Over six 25-minute episodes GI Hub’s Michael Twycross draws on insights from our Improving Delivery Models initiative and speaks with global infrastructure leaders to unpack themes that capture improvements to infrastructure delivery. Listen here.

Season 1: InfraTech solutions

Discover new and emerging technology-based solutions for more resilient infrastructure. This ten-part series includes interviews with start-ups, entrepreneurs and founders who share insights into their innovations, technology and solutions.

Hosted by GI Hub’s Monica Bennett, each episode is 25-minute’s and showcases finalists from GI Hub’s InfraChallenge, a global innovation competition that helps start-ups advance their solutions. Listen here.

Programs

Below are some programs the GI Hub is currently delivering in partnership with other organisations. For more programs, explore our work.

Africa Infrastructure Fellowship Program

Developed by the GI Hub, Meridiam, and the World Economic Forum, the AIFP trains African civil servants in infrastructure procurement and delivery. Participants receive tailored training delivered by academic experts and infrastructure professionals, and can undertake hands-on learning in a private sector sponsor organisation. The program aims to create a network of practitioners across Africa and globally to facilitate the exchange of knowledge, insight, technical expertise, and on-the-ground experience. Learn more here.

Regulatory Capital Charges and Infrastructure as an Asset Class

In our role supporting the G20’s infrastructure agenda, the GI Hub is acting on the G20 Eminent Persons Group recommendation of a case for infrastructure as an asset class, distinct from generic corporate exposures with its own differentiated risk profile. We're uniquely positioned to act as a trusted facilitator in private and public sector consideration of this issue. View our report on Infrastructure Debt Capital Charges for Insurers, and contact us for more information.
