The latest G20 meeting has attracted world attention with a number of important issues raised, beyond many people’s expectations. The meeting, which was held in Bali, Indonesia, in a hybrid format for two days, involved delegates from various countries, including member countries, as well as international organizations and the private sector. With the main theme “Recovering the Post-Pandemic Economy,” the G20 agenda this time explores various solutions to global challenges, from economic recovery to climate change management. Among the issues discussed is climate change, where attention to achieving carbon emissions targets has become very urgent. World leaders discussed ways to strengthen cooperation to reach an agreement at the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference. This discussion attracted media attention, especially after a number of countries, such as China and India, announced their ambitious plans for reducing emissions. The health sector is also a main focus. In the context of post-pandemic recovery, leaders emphasized the need for a stronger global health system. Plans to strengthen health infrastructure in developing countries have broad support, including commitments to share technology and vaccines fairly. The digital economy and innovation are also no less important in this meeting. G20 leaders discussed the importance of providing wider internet access and accelerating digital transformation as a bridge to inclusive economic growth. Countries such as the United States and Germany are sharing initiatives on the development of environmentally friendly technologies, as the world shifts to a more sustainable economy. This meeting not only functions as a discussion forum, but also as a platform for establishing bilateral cooperation. Several country leaders are forging new agreements in the fields of trade and investment, which are expected to trigger economic growth amidst global uncertainty. In a socio-political context, this meeting is also an opportunity to discuss international peace and stability. Issues related to tensions occurring in several regions, such as the Middle East and East Asia, emerged in the discussion. G20 countries are trying to find diplomatic solutions, reflecting awareness of the importance of collaboration in maintaining global security. One surprise that was highlighted was the active participation of countries that were not usually invited before, such as the African Union and ASEAN. This indicates a paradigm shift in global diplomacy, with efforts to involve the voices of developing countries in international decision making. With all the dynamics occurring at the G20 this time, it is clear that this meeting is more than just a ceremonial event. This reflects the urgent need for global collaboration in facing shared challenges. It is hoped that the initiatives emerging from this meeting will shape the world’s economic and political landscape in the future, demonstrating that international cooperation is the key to creating sustainable solutions for all nations. In the end, the world hopes that the results of this meeting can encourage the realization of global stability and prosperity.
