Deputy Administrator Isobel Coleman traveled to India on June 10 to June 14 to represent the United States at the G20 Development Ministerial. She met partners to discuss USAID's collaborative efforts with the Government of India to expand women's economic empowerment, advance climate action, close the gender digital divide, and enhance health outcomes.
During the sessions on "Multilateralism - Collective Actions for Accelerating Progress towards SDGs" and "Green Development with a LiFE Approach," at the G20 Development Ministerial, Deputy Administrator Coleman gave updates on the development priorities made by the U.S. and made up to the commitment of 2023 Agenda.
There were two sessions held during the summit where Isobel stated about the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and highlighted the work of USAID on data for development, women-led development, and climate change.
The G20 members and other stakeholders were invited to join the Women in the Digital Economy Initiative where Isobel urged for a quick action on bridging the gender digital divide. In order to achieve the 2030 Goals, she even emphasized the need to accelerate the efforts made on the waste of food and reduction of methane emissions. The need to emphasize a positive impact on the climate, nutrition, and food security as well as the development of the economy was addressed.
Deputy Administrator Coleman met with several other delegates from India, Bangladesh, Brazil, the U.K., Canada, the European Union (EU), and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) in addition to the official G20 meetings.
Isobel next emphasized the significance of the G20 in addressing the challenges that result from the Russian Federation's unjustified and unprovoked war against Ukraine in both bilateral meetings and G20 Ministerial sessions, particularly the detrimental effects on glob food second energy security.
