Recoupling the World

Improving global governance
Jul 15, 2017 | Future World Foundation


Social prosperity has become decoupled from economic prosperity. Ever more people sense disempowerment in the face of globalization and digitalization and feel socially estranged in the face of migration flows and terrorism. This generates political and environmental problems with huge implications for our future. The world needs actions for recoupling social and economic prosperity.
This is what the Think 20 Summit GLOBAL SOLUTIONS is about: recoupling the world. In May 2017, this high-level summit brought together the world’s leading think tanks and over 1.000 participants in Berlin. Their common mission: to tackle the most pressing challenges facing our planet and to propose research-based policy solutions to the G20 leaders.
