- Ahead of the G7 Biarritz Summit on 24–26 August 2019, G7 France: The Biarritz 
Summit, the latest background book, shares the data on the G7's performance on 
its commitments 

- Combating inequalities in all spheres is the top priority on the agenda

- G7 France: The Biarritz Summit will be hand-delivered to leaders at the 
summit and sent to invested stakeholders worldwide

As world leaders prepare to gather in Biarritz for the 45th G7 summit, the 
latest in the G7 background books series launches with essential data on the 
G7's progress. Combating inequalities in all its forms is at the top of the 
French presidency's agenda and the book tracks the G7's performance in all 
areas, from economic growth and climate action to women's empowerment and 
national security.

This year's summit is built around a renewed format in which African leaders, 
major democracies and key regional partners have been invited to take a seat at 
the table. They will discuss the five priorities of the French presidency in 
the fight against inequality: fighting inequality of opportunity, promoting in 
particular gender equality, access to education and high-quality health 
services; fighting inequality related to environmental degradation; action on 
security and counter-terrorism; tapping into the opportunities created by 
digital technology and artificial intelligence; and combating inequality 
through a renewed partnership with Africa. 

G7 France: The Biarritz Summit is produced via a partnership between the G7 
Research Group based at Trinity College at the Munk School of Global Affairs in 
the University of Toronto and UK publishing company GT Media Group. Together, 
they form The Global Governance Project 
[http://www.globalgovernanceproject.com/]. 

The publication features original content from world leaders including Italy's 
Prime Minister Giuseppe Conte, president of the European Commission Jean-Claude 
Juncker and Australia's Prime Minister Scott Morrison, Chile's President 
Sebastián Piñera and Egypt's President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi – the latter three 
are invited as guest leaders.

The background book explores the agenda in detail with progressive commentary, 
dialogue and calls to action from heads of UN entities, the World Health 
Organization, International Labour Organization, OECD and Europol. Each 
deep-dives into the issues, offering solutions to the challenges that threaten 
fair, equitable growth and development.
