Just before this year’s G20 Summit in Mexico, where the leaders of the world’s biggest 20 economies will be focusing on a variety of issues, another summit had been held. Young women all over the world looked at the G20 agenda through the lens of the economic empowerment of girls and women.

The third annual G(irls) 20 Summit brought together one girl, aged 18 to 20, from each of the 20 participating countries – plus a representative from the African Union – to focus on the opportunities that can be gained when women are economically empowered.
