About:

India took over the G20 presidency from Indonesia on December 1, 2022, a responsibility and opportunity during a rather turbulent global atmosphere. Comprising a total of 20 members, the G20 members account for about 80% of the World’s GDP, 60% population, and a large chunk of global trade, proving its prowess, especially during the 2008 global financial crisis. Keeping the philosophy of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (One World, One Family, One Future) at its core, the country has embarked on a rather ambitious journey at times when the world is still grappling with the Russia-Ukraine crisis, fraught with inflation and an impending recession; financial and geopolitical tension heightening. The challenge of steering this tumultuous presidency is an opportunity in disguise for India to shape, influence, and gravitate global priorities and policies toward the discourses of utmost need, such as women-led development and multilateral reforms. It is the time to revisit the traditional ways of multilateral decision-making and call for structural changes, thereby allowing more voices in global reforms. On the other hand, the presidency also is the moment to adapt our foreign policy in consonance with the everchanging realist world in light of the normative values and resonate the same to advance our national interests.

The course will dabble with questions like – What are the non-tangible contingent gains India can make? How could the presidency be harnessed to further our national interests? How strategically significant is the presidency with a belligerent China at the doors? Along with insightful discussions on the complexity of the multilateral forum, its footprints on Indian Foreign Policy, opportunities, and the way forward.

The purpose of this course is to postulate a general understanding of the G20 as a working body and take a deeper dive into the Indian presidency; furthermore, its effect on Indian Foreign Policy keeping the tumultuous global political and financial atmosphere in mind.

For Whom: 

Everyone has a keen interest in International Relations, Foreign Policy, and India’s Presidential Role in G20: Diplomats, Foreign Service Aspirants, Undergraduate and Post-Graduate Students, Researchers, Faculty, Journalists, Civil Society members, and Activists.
