- Inclusive growth is not just about how to adjust macroeconomic policies to generate more jobs, but how to achieve structural changes that produce more economic security, greater equality, and social inclusion.
- Sustainability is not just about how to manage environmental challenges, but is increasingly seen as requiring holistic, integrated approaches to many sectors of the economy, segments of society, and diverse dimensions of environmental imbalances.
- Making the global economy, trade, and financial systems serve people and society rather than only grow the economy may become the new mantra for managing the global economy.
In other words, we are witnessing a pivot from maximizing economic growth to reshaping the patterns of growth to achieve better social and environmental outcomes.
How much time G-20 leaders will have in Hamburg to explore these new dimensions and dynamics remains to be seen. But it is already clear within the G-20 preparatory processes among leading think tanks, business, labor, and civil society groups that the challenges now facing the global community are more interrelated, more synergistic, and more sweeping in terms of their social effects than previously realized. The rise of populist authoritarianism in response to them creates a new moment in global governance.

ENGAGEMENT GROUPS http://www.w20-germany.org/the-w20/engagement-groups/
G20 - THE GROUP OF TWENTY
All together, the G20 economies account for 85% of the global economy, 80% of world trade, and two-thirds of the global population. Those simple facts underline the significant potential of the G20 as a global platform to enable international economic co-operation and policy making. The members of the G20 are Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, the Republic of Korea, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Turkey, the United Kingdom, the United States of America, and the European Union.
The G20 is engaged in a close dialogue with other groups in order to use the ideas and recommendations of important civil society players in its discussions and negotiations.
There will be various dialogue fora where international representatives of the private sector (Business20), non-governmental organisations (Civil20), trade unions (Labour20), academia (Science20), think tanks (Think20), women (Women20) and youth (Youth20) will have a chance to present their positions and submit proposals to the G20.
W20 - WOMEN20
W20, an official G20 Engagement Group, which aims to increase women’s participation in the global economy by 100,000,000 more women, is established during the Turkish Presidency of the G20. W20 is expected to bring resilience to the economy with the outlook of more women for the prosperity of the world and globally better results for the companies when gender inclusiveness is achieved.

B20 - BUSINESS20
The B20 outreach Group is an integral part of the G20 process, representing the entire G20 business community. The mission of the B20 is to support the G20 through consolidated representation of interests, concrete policy proposals, and expertise. The B20 promotes dialogue among policymakers, civil society, and business at the international level. In the B20, business representatives from the entire G20 develop joint recommendations and advocate specific policy-actions across the complete G20 agenda. In addition, the B20 organizes a number of events and provides a platform for exchanges with governments and other stakeholders of the G20 process. Like the G20, the B20 is a perennial process with working activities and events during the throughout the whole year.
T20 - THINK20
T20 is a network of research institutes and think tanks from the G20 countries. The T20 provides research-based policy advice to the G20, facilitates interaction among its members and the policy community, and communicates with the broader public about issues of global importance. The key features of the process are the following: The T20 develops policy recommendations within nine thematic Task Forces which are published as Policy Briefs in the first half of 2017. The T20 works in close cooperation with G20 policy makers through the Task Forces and its workshops and conferences. The T20 blog publishes analytical and opinion pieces by high-level experts on key issues ahead of the 2017 G20 Summit in Hamburg. The Kiel Institute for the World Economy (IfW) and the German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik (DIE) coordinate the T20 process during the German presidency in 2016 and 2017. T20 institutes are called upon to actively engage in the Task Forces, the workshops and conferences and through the blog. One of the key outcomes of the T20 Germany process will be the establishment of an additional permanent web-based T20 Insight Platform that provides policy analysis to support G20 policy making.
C20 - CIVIL20
The C20’s role is to represent the views of national and international civil society at the G20. The C20 main objective is to facilitate a structured and sustained exchange of critical reflection and political perspectives amongst civil society in G20 countries and beyond on the G20 agenda. In the past there has been a strong focus on advancing reforms of the global finance architecture and other G20 priorities as well as demanding a paradigm shift in the political approach of the G20 towards globalization to a truly sustainable and inclusive development. As we see it today, globalization is incompatible with the objectives of sustainable development, and contributes to rising inequality and human rights violations worldwide. Civil society coming together under the C20 is thus urging a major overhaul of the political rules shaping economic and financial globalization to address the plight of the poorest and most disadvantaged members of society.
