To avoid a lost decade of stalled restructurings and high debt service pressure, the global financial architecture needs to evolve. Currently, debt restructuring focuses on stabilisation, but not on prosperity or resilience. Under the chairmanship of Ghana, the V20 Group, representing 58 economies, also launched the roadmap to the Accra-Marrakech Agenda (A2M) in April 2023 with climate resilience at its core.\nTo make debt restructuring more efficient, the Common Framework needs to better integrate diverse creditors, provide a timely, predictable, transparent and fair process of burden sharing, as well as to enable countries to mobilize the resources necessary for climate-aligned prosperity. The IMF, the World Bank, and the Indian G20 Presidency have launched the Global Sovereign Debt Roundtable (GSDR) with this goal in mind: to propose an evolution of the sovereign debt restructuring system, with all major parties around the table.\nHow can a more coordinated voice of borrower countries push for those reforms? This coalition would create a space of discussion and coordination. This would allow us to share experiences, pool technical resources together, and advocate for changes in a unified voice.\nObjectives\nThe objective of this roundtable is for debtor countries to determine a set of coordinated demands in the context of the GSDR. It also aims to generate interest in pooling technical knowledge of the restructuring process and its components: debt sustainability analyses, comparability of treatment and other concepts which form the restructuring architecture.\nOpening Session\n\nH.E.
