V20 Overview
Who we are
We are a global community of values experts and practitioners that seeks to actively engage with the Group of Twenty (G20).
Our Vision
We want to add depth to the understanding of values in public policy with the goal of providing the G20 with evidence-based, human-centered policy solutions that contribute to overcoming global challenges.
From ‘The Value of Values’ to ‘LEAD With Values’
We launched in 2020, focusing on the ‘Value of Values’ and continued our journey in 2023, focusing on ‘LEAD With Values’. Our global community has produced, and will continue to do so, high impact policies and recommendations that were presented to the G20 Heads of State for their consideration and activation
V20 Value Proposition
V20 2025 Themes
Solidarity
Through solidarity, we can create an inclusive future that advances the interests of people at the greatest risk of being left behind.
This is important in an interconnected world, where the challenges faced by one nation affect all nations.
The disparities in wealth and development within and between countries is unjust and unsustainable.
Equality
By promoting equality, we strive to ensure fair treatment and equal opportunities for all individuals and nations.
We aim to break down divisions of economic status, gender, race, geography or any other characteristic.
Sustainable Development
Sustainability involves meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
In line with our theme, we will seek to strengthen and advance the international effort to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
