Questions for Sector Meetings
Questions for Sector Meetings
Heads of State: Terrorism is unacceptable in all our nations. How can G-20 states work together more closely to prevent the outbreak of terrorist incidents? How can they collaborate in prosecuting the perpetrators, and their supporters, of acts of terror on innocent citizens? In particular, how can we prevent the uses of the Internet to promote terrorism, even while protecting the rights and freedoms, including the privacy of privacy, of law-abiding citizens and commercial groups to use the Internet in the process?
Ministers of Foreign Affairs: How can the G-20 governments reduce the number of refugees and displaced people who cross national boundaries, even while maintaining reasonably open borders for legitimate and free movement of our citizens?
Environmental Ministers: What has been the experience to date in implementing the national targets for reducing carbon and other greenhouse gases (GHG) set in the UN COP 21 agreement in Paris in December 2015? Is it possible to establish a carbon trading system at a global level?
Education Ministers: Some education leaders advocate more attention to teaching global skills to make your country more competitive in the international economy. This would include more English, IT, STEM education, and international exchanges. Others argue for more national education, including more history, local languages, and cultural studies that promote positive citizenship and social cohesion. How does your ministry deal with these conflicting pressures for change?
Where does your country stand in the international league tables, such as PISA, on student achievement? What measures has your ministry taken to raise the quality of teaching and learning in your schools that may be falling behind?
