According to the Department of International Relations and Cooperation (DIRCO), the meeting is scheduled to take place from 7 - 8 July 2022.

Held under the theme ‘Recover Together, Recover Stronger’, the G20 FMM will discuss current geopolitical tensions across the world, their humanitarian, as well as socio-economic impacts, and the role and contribution of the G20 in strengthening multilateralism.
