Summary

The declaration's motto says "We are One Earth, One Family, and we share One Future".[4]

Preamble

The declaration's preamble acknowledges the global community's failure to meet the Sustainable Development Goals of the 2030 Agenda, as well as the pertinent issues of poverty and an increased average cost-of-living.[5]

Later in the preamble, the G20 Leaders promise to:

  • Fulfill the 2030 Agenda with "full and effective implementation".
  • Reduce GHG emissions.
  • Provide easier access to medical care and supplies.
  • Offer wider access to digital infrastructure.
  • Close the gender gap.

"For the Planet, People, Peace, and Prosperity"

In reference to the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, the G20 Leaders state:

"In line with the UN Charter, all states must refrain from the threat or use of force to seek territorial acquisition against the territorial integrity and sovereignty or political independence of any state. The use or threat of use of nuclear weapons is inadmissible."[6]

The G20 Leaders then offer appreciation for the mediation efforts of Türkiye, specifically the Black Sea Grain Initiative, which was in effect from July 2022 to July 2023.
