The event, organised in cooperation with Microsoft, will bring together officials, experts from think tanks and academia, and leading international organisations working on artificial intelligence (AI).

The purpose of the event is to analyse the health and security nexus with a focus on the relevance of epidemic/pandemic risk for European and global security. Experts and policy-makers will discuss the role of the various actors involved in global health governance and the international cooperation initiatives needed to effectively address global health threats such as pandemics. A IAI paper related to these issues will be presented and discussed during the event.

The event, organised in partnership with Focus2030 and the Compagnia di San Paolo Foundation, and in cooperation with Think7 and the Civil7, aims to examine G7 and G20 commitments to foster development cooperation, including under Italy’s G7 Presidency, assess their achievements and shortcomings, and discuss the policy priorities they should pursue. The event will focus on how to build more solid interactions and synergies between the G7 and G20 in the field of development cooperation to support the global sustainability agenda .
