The complex relations between Brazil and the United States find new opportunities for collaboration and global relevance through the G20. As both countries seek to address global issues such as economic development, climate change, digital transformation, and the strengthening of multilateral governance, the Group of 20 emerges as an essential platform for fostering joint actions.

The dossier explores the relationship between the two countries with a focus on the G20, seeking pathways for deeper collaboration that leverages the central roles of Brazil and the United States in global discussions. As the largest economy in Latin America and the largest economy in the world, respectively, Brazil and the United States share responsibilities and common interests that present an opportunity to create innovative and impactful global solutions. 

The publication aims to serve as a tool for constructively influencing decision-makers, policymakers, civil society representatives, and private sector actors, underscoring the importance of joint actions and bilateral cooperation within the G20 framework. The ideas and proposals presented here are designed to foster discussions that inspire public policies and contribute to a more dynamic and mutually beneficial relationship between Brazil and the United States, with a positive impact on global issues.
