Created in 2012, the Think 20 (T20) is an engagement group comprised of think tanks whose primary challenge is to add value to the Group of Twenty (G20) process with evidence-based public policy proposals.
The 2020 engagement group brought global policy experts together from more than 500 institutions to help world leaders address global problems. Over 700 researchers and experts representing 77 countries have contributed to more than 150 policy briefs that come under the five themes of T20 Saudi Arabia: climate and environment; women and youth; multilateralism, economic development, and finance; sustainable resources; and technology and digitalization.
