Jakarta, CIDISS.CO – The G20 Summit is a government forum to discuss issues that are currently being experienced by the world. The 20 member countries of the G20 represent about 86% of world trade or 2/3 of the world’s population.
Expert Staff of the Presidential Staff Office (KSP), Dilla Amran revealed that what was discussed by the G20 would certainly have an impact on the whole world.
“The government cannot stand alone to organize the G20. We really need to hear from “Penta Helix” including the community, academics, and others,” said Dilla in an online dialogue with Pancasila TV, Monday 10/10/2022.
Therefore, Dilla continued, in the G20 there is a working group consisting of the government, then there is an engagement group consisting of civil society and the general public.
“From year to year, the G20 Summit plays a major role in the formulation of policies carried out by government forums in the working group,” explained the KSP Expert.
In addition, the youth have an important role in the success of the international event.
“Early 2022 or around January, Youth 20 (Y20) friends gathered and discussed common concerns, including employment, health, inclusiveness, and a sustainable and livable planet,” said Dilla.
They want to contribute to providing the results of the formulation to be discussed further at the G20 forum according to their field specifications.
“So, there is an interconnectedness between the working group and the engagement group,” said Dilla.
At the G20 forum, all parties are invited to be involved because this is a common problem. Therefore, the tagline is “Recover Together, Recover Stronger”. This departs from the spirit of mutual cooperation to jointly discuss world problems, not only at the G20 leader level but also at the grassroots.
Dilla revealed that all parties focused on discussing global recovery, both in terms of health, energy and food crises, to the future such as employment, climate, and energy transition.
The G20 Summit is a forum to calibrate each other and communicate policies to be taken regarding economic development. One country’s policy will affect the policies of other countries, especially developing countries.
Furthermore, Dilla explained, as the G20 Presidency, Indonesia is very careful about the policies taken by developed countries so that they do not have a major impact on developing countries.
Meanwhile, young people who are members of Y20 are very vocal and have a stand and can see the problems of a problem in a comprehensive context.
“They are very well connected and willing to listen to the policies of their senior pearce. There are so many young people who continue to follow and respond and have good knowledge about the G20,” said Dilla.
Dilla revealed that the G20 Communication Team is trying to continue to broadcast the developments of the G20, so that the public out there, especially young people, respond and voice their responses in their respective environments.
“If young people don’t realize and care about world problems, then who will handle them”, explained Dilla.
Dilla is optimistic that many young people are aware, willing to learn, understand, and have dialogue to discuss world problems.
