About W20

Women 20 is the official G20 policy recommendation engagement group but is independent from governments. In its functioning, it mirrors the G20 process. Its primary objective is to ensure that the gender considerations are mainstreamed into G20 discussions and translate into the G20 Leaders' Declaration as policies and commitments that foster gender equality and women鈥檚 economic empowerment.
