Global Citizen is a community of people-a place to learn about and take action on the world’s biggest issues. 

It has been held prior to the G20 summit where the world leaders gathered to discuss global economic growth, international trade and financial market regulation and other issues that have global impact. 

During the concert, musicians drew world leaders' attention to the issues that matter for humanity.
