Participating from Italian, European and International organizations, development agencies, companies, investment banks, foundations, international organizations, NGOs, research centers, Universities and social impact actors. The creative process as well as the organizational efforts carried out together with our partners Diplomacy and Sustainaway, have been at the heart of our mission: creating an annual meeting-point to share ideas and discuss one of the most central themes of today’s socio-political paradigm: International Cooperation and Sustainable Development. We are strongly committed to bring together all development actors, from traditional development players to new actors represented by the private sector, directing business towards development cooperation and fostering investments and innovation. Indeed, with this expo, we want to launch Rome, the third International hub of UN organizations, as the Mediterranean capital of development cooperation focused on: sustainability, innovation and profit-oriented. Apriamo i battenti di EXCO2019 dando il benvenuto a tutti i partecipanti: delegazioni da 45 Paesi del mondo, istituzioni italiane, europee e multilaterali, agenzie di sviluppo, aziende, banche di investimento, fondazioni, organizzazioni internazionali, ONG, università, centri di ricerca. Il grande sforzo creativo e organizzativo che, assieme ai partner Diplomacy e Sustainaway - abbiamo profuso per dare vita a questa manifestazione è stato perpetrato con l’obiettivo di creare un appuntamento fieristico che fosse allo stesso tempo un momento espositivo e un punto di incontro e dibattito su uno dei temi più centrali per l’agenda politica e sociale: la cooperazione. Ci siamo impegnati per mettere assieme tutti gli attori del settore, puntando a coinvolgere, oltre a quelli tradizionali, il mondo privato e profit. Un approccio del tutto in linea con la grande attenzione che sempre più la cooperazione sta rivolgendo alle imprese, nell’ottica di far procedere business e sviluppo a braccetto, con una logica di mutua promozione. Con questo appuntamento vogliamo candidare Roma, terza città al mondo per sedi ONU, a porsi quale Capitale mediterranea della cooperazione, che sia sostenibile, condivisa e profit.

  • 2018 Charlevoix G7 Final Compliance Report 10 June 2018 — 25 July 2019
    The G7 Research Group at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy at Trinity College in the University of Toronto presents the 2018 Charlevoix G7 Final Compliance Report 10 June 2018 — 25 July 2019 Prepared by Angela Min Yi Hou, Julia Tops, and Cindy Xinying Ou 23 August 2019 www.g7.utoronto.ca [email protected] @g7_rg “We have meanwhile set up a process and there are also independent institutions monitoring which objectives of our G7 meetings we actually achieve. When it comes to these goals we have a compliance rate of about 80%, according to the University of Toronto. Germany, with its 87%, comes off pretty well. That means that next year too, under the Japanese G7 presidency, we are going to check where we stand in comparison to what we have discussed with each other now. So a lot of what we have resolved to do here together is something that we are going to have to work very hard at over the next few months. But I think that it has become apparent that we, as the G7, want to assume responsibility far beyond the prosperity in our own countries. That’s why today’s outreach meetings, that is the meetings with our guests, were also of great importance.” Chancellor Angela Merkel, Schloss Elmau, 8 June 2015 G7 summits are a moment for people to judge whether aspirational intent is met by concrete commitments. The G7 Research Group provides a report card on the implementation of G7 and G20 commitments. It is a good moment for the public to interact with leaders and say, you took a leadership position on these issues — a year later, or three years later, what have you accomplished?
