2025 G7 Kananaskis Summit Goals Set and Met
Compiled by Jacob Rudolph and Angus MacKellar, Co-chairs of Summit Studies, G7 Research Group
June 23, 2025
The G7 2025 Kananaskis Summit Goals Meet and Set Report is prepared by the G7 Research Group based at the University of Toronto. Using the Goals Set report published on June 13, 2025, it provides a qualitative assessment of how well these goals were achieved at the Kananaskis Summit on June 15–17, 2025.
The Goals Set and Met Report includes averages by country and by issue to produce an overall evaluation score for the summit as a whole.
G7 Research Group analysts based the goals set by issue on priorities expressed in the Kananaskis Summit agenda as published by Canada's presidency and also priorities carried over from previous summits, as well as corresponding priorities expressed through global commitments such as the Paris Agreement on climate change and the Sustainable Development Goals. The goals by member are drawn from national policy addresses (i.e., State of the Union Address, Speech from the Throne, etc.), speeches in public forums such as the United Nations General Assembly and the World Economic Forum, news releases and readouts, and other publicly available information. Five to seven priority goals have been identified and ranked for each issue and member (see Tables 1 and 2). They were expressed as closely as possible to the style of language used in G7 communiqué, to facilitate the assessment of the goals met at Kananaskis Summit, using the standard matching methodology developed and applied by the G7 Research Group.
