SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Purpose: The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS),
with support from relevant health-related U.S. Government offices, is
charged with leading the U.S. engagement in the Group of 20 (G20)
Health Track and will convene an informal Stakeholder Listening
Session.
The Stakeholder Listening Session is designed to seek input from
stakeholders and subject matter experts to help inform and prepare for
U.S. Government engagement with G20 health ministries.
The Group of Twenty (G20) is a major forum for international
economic cooperation. It plays an important role in defining and
strengthening global architecture and governance on major international
economic issues. Initially, the G20 focused mainly on general
macroeconomic issues, but later expanded its agenda to include topics
such as trade, sustainable development, health, agriculture, energy,
the environment, climate change and the fight against corruption.
The G20 is comprised of 19 countries (Argentina, Australia, Brasil,
Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Korea,
Mexico, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Russia, T[uuml]rkiye, UK and USA)
and two regional bodies: the African Union and the European Union. The
members of the G20 represent around 85% of the world's GDP, more than
75% of world trade and around two-thirds of the world's population.
Each year, a different member country holds the presidency of the
group and hosts the meetings. The presidency proposes the group's
priorities for the year and hosts discussions to work towards consensus
positions and actions on those priorities. This year's G20 presidency
is Brazil, which will be hosting Health Working Group meetings
throughout the year, culminating in a Health Ministers' Meeting on
October 31, 2024, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Matters to be Discussed: The Stakeholder Listening Session will
cover global health issues under the general themes of global health
security and health systems strengthening that could benefit from G20
engagement.
Participation is welcome from stakeholder communities, including:
<bullet> Public health and advocacy groups
<bullet> State, local, and Tribal groups
<bullet> Private industry
<bullet> Minority health organizations
<bullet> Academic and scientific organizations
