Blogging at the G20 summithace 254 días
 
Remember Make Poverty History and Live8? Two big moments back in 2005 when tackling poverty was at the forefront of everyone's mind.

Make Poverty History and Live8 happened ahead of 2005's G8 Summit. And thanks to your campaigning, world leaders announced a whole raft of measures to tackle poverty.

In many ways, the G20 is similar to the G8. There is, however, a key difference - size.

More developing countries are included in the meetings, meaning the G20 is more representative than the G8, and the presence of Barack Obama at the London Summit has heightened the sense that the world now has an opportunity for genuine change.

Oxfam has helped organise the G20 Voice blogging project. Bloggers from all over the world will join us at the summit to comment on how the decisions will affect people internationally. Find out more at http://www.whitebandradar.org/en/g20
