This paper argues that the G20 should be at the center of Australia’s approach to international economic engagement in the years ahead. The text’s authors further assert that 1) the G20 is a valuable, if flawed, institution that provides the best option for coordinating responses to global economic and financial crises; 2) Australia has a vested interest in the success of the G20 and its contribution to global economic debates; and 3) Canberra should invest ministerial time and bureaucratic effort to engage more actively in the G20.
