By establishing the F20 platform the participating organisations seek for pathways towards sustainable development and call for common and transnational action based on positive transformation examples.<\/p>\n<p>F20 wants to be part of the solution on climate change by building bridges between civil society, business and politics within the G20 countries and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>How does F20 contribute to the solution of global challenges?<\/p>\n<p>F20 seeks to establish an open dialogue to highlight solutions and positive transformation examples in order to move further forward with global decarbonisation trends. This also includes the identification of potential barriers to this transformation, as well as to motivate and include other actors to initiate progress and sustainable transformation processes.<\/p>\n<p>Concerted efforts such as the F20 platform of foundations strive to send a strong signal to governments and make them realise that civil society and other non-state actors have a crucial role to play in implementing sustainable development. Global collaboration can facilitate efforts to overcome barriers and limitations. Particularly these efforts include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>To encourage and move forward with global decarbonisation trends.<\/li>\n<li>To push forward the transformation in the energy sector by shifting towards renewable energy sources and increasing energy efficiency.<\/li>\n<li>To emphasise the indispensable role of civil society organisations within this transformation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>We are convinced that only a new level of international collaboration and transformational partnerships will be able to solve the global challenges the world is facing today.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Alongside the G20, the F20 High-Level Forum took place in Buenos Aires with the title: \u201cShifting the trillions- Our contribution to a just transition\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1519,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[54,1],"tags":[90,43,12,120,22,103,44,26],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1517"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1517"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1517\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1519"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1517"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.genesisarg.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
