Working Groups (WG) are thematic spaces where CSOs, networks and social movements from all over the world meet in person and/or online, to discuss and produce policy papers aimed at providing concrete recommendations and policy proposals targeting the G20.
One of the principles that holds C20 is continuity which means that although the overall themes and priorities of the C20 may vary from year to year, all C20 processes should be guided by the aim of reflecting the perspective and experience of civil society across a diverse range of topics. For that to happen, each C20 WG must build on its predecessors and ensure that the voices and experiences from different parts of the world are considered.
