History is being made as Africa hosts its first-ever G20 Leaders' Summit this year! 🎉 The 2025 event has become a rallying cry for the Global South, with South Africa’s Minister Sindisiwe Chikunga telling CGTN: This is our moment to reshape global priorities.
Solidarity Meets Action
With ‘solidarity, equality, sustainability’ as its mantra, the summit spotlights urgent issues like financial inclusion and gender justice. We can’t talk about progress while women face violence or economic exclusion, Chikunga emphasized, urging leaders to invest in youth programs and the care economy 💼🌱.
Youth & Women Take Center Stage
Over 60% of Africa’s population is under 25 – and the summit’s focus on ‘leaving no one behind’ resonates deeply. From digital innovation hubs to climate-resilient agriculture, 2025’s G20 could unlock opportunities for a generation demanding change 📈✨.
As Chikunga put it: When Africa rises, the world rises with us. Will this summit deliver? All eyes are on the negotiations this week 🕊️.
