Engagement Groups

The Sherpas are an ethnic group from the mountainous region of Nepal, which in Tibetan means “people from the East”. It is they who guide the climbers who aim to reach the top of Mount Everest. Without their skills, it would be almost impossible to reach the summit. In the G20, the Sherpas are the leaders of each country who take the discussions and agreements to the final summit with Heads of State and Government.

The Sherpa Track is made up of 15 working groups, two task forces and a Initiative.
