The trajectory of transatlantic cooperation on data governance has been hampered by divergent principles on data protection and privacy, and by incidents which eroded the trust between the two partners. A lack of alignment on data governance to regulate the flow of data can disrupt cooperation between the European Union and the United States on cutting-edge digital infrastructure, with severe economic and national security ramifications. The cases of cloud services and subsea ICT cables expose how the unresolved trust deficit still constitutes an obstacle to transatlantic cooperation on critical digital infrastructures. Several avenues for cooperation have emerged as suitable dimensions to restore trust at the transatlantic level and address the challenges of the digital landscape. Nonetheless, significant challenges remain.

This report illustrates the current state of malaria and highlights its incidence, the challenges linked to climate change and anti-microbial resistance, and its importance for other G7 health priorities, such as pandemic preparedness and response, global health architecture, innovation, R&D and local production. It also provides an overview of the main public and private bodies and partnerships committed to malaria elimination and concludes with a set of recommendations for the 2024 Presidency of the G7.

The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) will have a wide-ranging impact on multiple spheres including politics, security and global economy. The G7 serves as a crucial platform for advancing discussions and building consensus on AI governance. G7 leaders have adopted International Guiding Principles and a voluntary Code of Conduct for AI under the Japanese Presidency, corroborating their commitment to make progress in this sphere. To promote a responsible development and deployment of AI technology, governments are at work to facilitate dialogue and cooperation with like-minded countries and international agencies and organisations, while promoting a multi-stakeholder and a whole-of-society approach at a national level. On 22 January 2024, the responsibility for this initiative formally shifted to the Italian leadership, which is now called upon to take the conversation forward and channel the collaboratively effort of G7 leaders into effective implementation and interoperability of allied AI regulatory frameworks. Designing flexible regulatory packages, able to accommodate the rapid pace of technological innovation while ensuring trustworthiness, is a pressing challenge and a pivotal step. G7 leaders are thus faced with the reasonability to deliver progress on the regulation of the digital domain, to unlock the full potential of transformative technologies.
