ONE : One Campaign petitions G-20 world leaders to meet in Africa
11 SEPTEMBER 2009 - Presidents and prime ministers are headed to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in September week for the G20 Summit—the latest in a series of high-level talks on the global economy, covering everything from international trade to the rules governing financial markets.
But it’s not only what these world leaders talk about that matters. Where they meet is important, too. If an African country is picked next to host an upcoming G20 summit, it would bring new attention to the role Africa can and must play in any successful global economic recovery.
