Day 3 - G20 Social Summit | South Africa

At the G20 Social Summit in South Africa, speakers presented legacy projects to empower African youth, women, and communities amid challenges like unemployment and limited funding. Key initiatives include UNDP's Timbuktu program supporting 10,000 startups through innovation centers, policy reforms, and a $1 billion catalytic fund; a global health gap financing mechanism for women and children; sports-for-development infrastructure; a Pan-African sovereign wealth fund for infrastructure and jobs; and digital higher education scholarships expanding access for millions. These efforts, designed to outlast presidencies, aim to drive economic transformation, create opportunities, and align with SDGs and Agenda 2063, potentially impacting over 100 million lives.
