About S20

India is holding the Presidency of the G20 with the theme One Earth, One Family, One Future for the year 2023. Several Engagement groups are working towards it, one of which is Science20 or S20, which strives to bring leaders together from all over the world who can share their ideas on how science can help in a sustainable future.

The role of S20 in furthering the agenda of G20 is crucial, as science is the key driving force behind economic expansion and human progress. Inspired by the core theme of G20 which is the theme of the Science20 summit is taken as “Disruptive Science for Innovative and Sustainable Development”.

TSo far under the umbrella of S20 five programs were organized at Puducherry, Agartala, Lakshadweep, Bhopal, and Coimbatore for invited guests, scientists, researchers and stake holders. The subthemes for the discussion and programs were “Clean Energy for Greener Future”, “Universal Holistic Health”, and “Science for Society & Culture”.
