The GG2020 program draws on a broad array of dedicated supporters from all three participating countries. The core responsibility for the design and implementation of the program lies with the GG2020 Project Team of the Global Public Policy Institute in Berlin.

The Project Team is supported by the GG2020 partner institutions: the Woodrow Wilson School at Princeton University, Fudan University, the Hertie School of Governance, the Brookings Institution and the Shanghai Academy of Social Sciences.

In addition, GG2020 relies on the advice and guidance provided by the GG2020 Steering Committee of senior policymakers and academics from the three participating countries. The program is generously supported by the Robert Bosch Stiftung and Transatlantic Program of the German Government (ERP Grant administered by the German Ministry for Economics and Technology).
