“Took part in the Third G20 Sherpas’ Virtual Meeting, under the presidency of Saudi Arabia on 2nd marathon day attended by more than 30 participants including 20 countries along with many other organisations,” he said.

He further said that the world is faced by the growing challenge of water shortage and water resource management has become the need of the hour.

“When the world is faced by the growing challenge of water shortage, water resource management has become the need of the hour. We must focus on strengthened mechanisms for Zoonosis control, in line with the One Health approach.”

The third G20 Sherpa Meeting is being held under Saudi Arabia’s presidency, with participation from G20 members, invited countries, and international and regional organizations.

G20 Sherpas have already met under the Saudi presidency to address the Covid-19 pandemic. More meetings are expected to take place in preparation for the 2020 G20 Leaders’ Summit, which will be held virtually from November 21 to 22.
