G7 Fringe

People & ideas that might just change the world.

In June 2021, leaders of the G7 nations are gathering in Cornwall. On the agenda – the big challenges facing our world. The seven leaders will be making decisions that affect all our futures.

While the Presidents and Prime Ministers meet down the road, come and join us in Newquay and online for the G7 Fringe – where we’ll tackle the big questions of our time and come up with actions we can all take.

The G7 Fringe will come up with 7 practical actions, each of us can take every day, to make a positive difference. Ideas and suggestions from the community leaders, quirky entrepreneurs, global leaders, creatives, activists and experienced leaders who are leading and attending sessions.

Brought together by the People’s Assembly, with some more of their own, we’ll explore how to make all the talk about building back better, more than hot air. How can we as individuals, communities, businesses and nations, make radical changes, big and small, we need to make the world a fairer, greener place?

All served up with a pinch of Cornish hospitality.
