GARDENS FOR DIPLOMACY, AND CO-OPERATION

“History has been, and will continue to be recorded in various ways - only one of which is the written word. And then, it is recorded by how we choose to conduct ourselves, the ideas that we choose to serve, and the spaces that we create, and occupy.”

The year 2023 became the first time that India - a South Asian country - became host to the G-20 or Group of 20 Summit; a summit held annually with a rotating presidency with the intent of holding conversations that build up to a shared idea of the Global Future. 

A part of this forum is the U-20 or the Urban 20 Summit. The city of Ahmedabad added another chapter in its history books by becoming the first Indian City to host this colloquium that contributes perspectives, concerns, and ideas; bringing together mayors from the cities of Member Countries.  

Christened Sahyog Udhyan, this space demonstrates a moment in time; a space that will become a part of the community that surrounds it.
