With its G20 Presidency in 2024, its upcoming BRICS Presidency and the hosting of the UNFCCC COP30 in 2025, Brazil is taking the leading role in key multilateral processes. These chairmanships present exceptional opportunities to foster international cooperation on issues that challenge countries and societies around the globe. Among these, climate change environmental challenges, the uncertain trajectory of the development and use of artificial intelligence and political polarisation are prominent ones and closely interlinked. 

In the Managing Global Governance (MGG) Network Meeting 2024 in Brasília, we discussed the nexus between climate, AI and polarisation, and the opportunities (and limitations) of these multilateral processes present to address these issue areas. The outcomes of the discussions were fed into the Side Event, co-organised by MGG and Institute of Applied Economic Research (IPEA), on November 13 at the T20 Summit in Rio. Questions for the discussion included:

• What is on the agenda, and what is at stake in the fields of climate, AI, and societal polarisation? How are they interconnected?

• Which opportunities do the multilateral forums present for international cooperation in these fields?

• What are promising examples of solutions and cooperation to address these issues?

The event was jointly organised by IPEA and IDOS in the framework of the PRODIGEES project of the MGG programme with financial support from the European Union, the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ) and the Ministry of Culture and Science (MKW) of the State of North-Rhine Westphalia.
