FGV promove Aliança Global Contra a Fome e a Pobreza no Fórum de Doha

FGV has played a strategic role in furthering Brazil’s international agenda at global forums. As a founding member of the Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty, an initiative launched by Brazil’s G20 presidency, FGV has contributed its technical expertise and international links to promote the alliance at prominent forums for dialogue and cooperation.

Through its International Affairs Division (FGV DINT), FGV held a high-level panel discussion at the Doha Forum called “Uniting for Change: A Global Alliance Against Hunger and Poverty.” The panel featured Brazil’s social development minister, Wellington Dias; Colombia’s foreign minister, Luis Gilberto Murillo Urrutia; Mali’s foreign minister, Adoulaye Diop; and the deputy executive director of the World Food Program, Carl Skau. The Doha Forum is the Middle East’s leading conference for geopolitics, cooperation and international negotiations.

In addition to the panel, FGV supported the official Brazilian delegation in organizing bilateral meetings to promote the alliance. One of the main results of these meetings was the decision to hold the first Summit of the Global Alliance against Hunger and Poverty, to take place in Doha in November 2025. The event is scheduled to happen alongside the UN World Summit for Social Development.

FGV’s participation in the Doha Forum marks the beginning of a cycle of activities to promote the alliance at international forums. “Brazil has a lot to contribute to the world with its experience in combating hunger and poverty. FGV is actively committed to opening up new spaces and opportunities for this important Brazilian initiative to succeed and generate real and lasting impacts at a global level,” said FGV’s international director, Professor Marlos Lima.
