Youth Press (Imprensa Jovem) students were present to cover the Urban 20 Mayors’ Summit, the G20 Social’s engagement group on cities, in São Paulo. Check out the coverage featuring interviews with the city's international relations secretary and the deputy mayor of Brampton, Canada.

São Paulo, Brasil's financial center, hosted this month the Urban 20 Mayors' Summit, an engagement group (EG) of the Social G20 that debates the urban present and future, with a focus on smart, democratic and sustainable cities.

The event, which dealt with urban diplomacy, the exchange of experiences and good practices, as an environment for new business and international cooperation between the Urban 20 cities, was covered by the boys and girls reporters of the Youth Press, who, under the coordination of the city's Municipal Department of Education, are G20 partners in the Kids 20 project.

The team of young people from the Vinte e Cinco de Janeiro Municipal Elementary School in Vila Minerva studied the agenda, conducted interviews and produced a special audiovisual about the EG meetings. Check it out:
