Description

A successful outcome to the WTO ministerial in Hong Kong is far from certain as there are some difficult issues to overcome. This series of meetings looks into key unresolved issues at the WTO. This includes meetings on Special and Differential Treatment, Regionalism, Services and Agriculture. Examining these issues in more detail, each meeting seeks to explore what developing countries can expect from the current proposals in the lead up to the WTO conference.
