Minutes from the GEC Steering Group meeting on January 27, 2021, detailing the organization's decision to prioritize 'Green recovery' and the development of a new strategic approach to tackle systemic inequality as a foundation for the green economy.

• The Green Economy Coalition (GEC) Steering Group identified inequality as a "mission-critical" issue for 2021, concluding that addressing equality is a necessary foundation for achieving goals related to inclusion and the internalisation of nature. The GEC plans to develop an inequality programme by mapping existing member activities, forming a working group with experts, and issuing a public problem statement and vision that addresses root causes such as "kleptocracy, corruption" and inequity.
• The GEC established five draft priorities for 2021: capitalising on the Green recovery (including the expansion of the GE Tracker and integration into government plans and events like COP, WEF, and G20), building an inequality approach, diversifying funding, developing an SME approach to counterbalance inequality efforts, and accelerating coalition building and distributed delivery. The Steering Group identified "Green recovery" as the standout priority for the year.
• Reviewing 2020, the GEC noted several achievements, including a global meeting in India, the launch of the GE Tracker at the World Economic Forum (WEF), the creation of an Amazon hub, and the development of 10 COVID recovery steps. The organization identified three key lessons from 2020: the normalization of digital working, the opportunity to integrate green economy policy into the global COVID-19 recovery, and the need to directly address systemic racism and inequality highlighted by movements such as Black Lives Matter.
