🗓️ Save the Date: T20 Brasil Midterm Conference The T20 Brasil Midterm Conference, scheduled for June 30 – July 2, will convene T20 Brasil members and the larger G20 community for the highlight of this year’s T20 process. Over these three days, policy experts will have the chance to review the progress made throughout the year and propose fresh ideas and avenues for collaboration leading up to the G20 Summit in November and beyond. The Conference will culminate in the release of the T20 Brasil Communique, the synthesis of key recommendations formulated by T20 Brasil, and its delivery to G20 officials. Preliminary program to be announced soon. More information: t20brasil.org/en #T20Brasil #CEBRI #FUNAG #Ipea #G20Brasil #G20

The T20 Communique is out and one of the recommendations to the G20 is to "establish Data20, a multistakeholder platform to enhance cooperation on global data governance: Data20 should serve as a hub for collaboration across the G20 and its existing formal engagement groups... Debates on data governance should be centered on crosscutting issues such as information integrity, climate justice, health, the future of work, nondiscriminatory Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems, Digital Public Infrastructures (DPIs), and regulatory parity based on human rights and data justice". 

📢 CALL FOR POLICY BRIEFS ABSTRACTS 🌍💡 ✍🏼 The T20 Brasil process will put forward policy recommendations to G20 officials involved in the Sherpa and Finance tracks in the form of a final communiqué and task forces recommendations. 📚 To inform these documents, we are calling upon think tanks and research centres around the world – this invitation extends beyond G20 members – to build and/or reach out to their networks, share evidence, exchange ideas, and develop joint proposals for policy briefs. 🤝 The latter should put forward clear policy proposals to support G20 in addressing global challenges. Join the T20 Brasil initiative! 🌟 ℹ️ More info: https://lnkd.in/dgw_M2ha #T20Brasil #PolicyRecommendations #G20

the car industry is on crossroad, as the music industrie was in the early 2000's and late 90's. we will assist to the rise of mobility solutions rather than car ownership ? will the car industry business models change to like "music streaming models" ? I think it will (perhaps not in the short future) but it will due to different fact : *less ressources which mean less raw materials for manufacturing cars *saving the planet with less cars put in the market and less CO2 emission what do you think ?
