Rio prepares for world leaders coming to G20 Leaders meeting

World Today

Rio de Janeiro will host this year’s G20 Leaders’ Summit this week.

Famous for its geographical beauty and cultural vibrance, Rio is also known for its stark social and economic contrasts.

This has been a focal point of year-long, Brazil-led meetings that are researching ways to make the world’s wealthiest pay their fair share to address poverty, racism and the global climate crisis.
