Youth in Trade


Young people have historically not been actively involved in the important trade policy discussions and negotiations facilitated by the World Trade Organization. Yet, trade is considered by many to be the single most important potential contributor to poverty eradication. Young people are very active in grassroot movements on Fair Trade, but have never been granted access to the actual negotiations.

A group of young people from the Global Youth Action Network will travel to Hong Kong for the WTO Ministerial and will try to determine the possibilities of creating a permanent space for young people to participate in future trade negotiations.

Follow the updates from the WTO Ministerial, and get involved yourself if you are interested in trade issues, by joining this Group Blog!

Armageddon



Activtist,are on their way from Victoria Park to the Convention Centre, their intension is to storm the WTO, yesterday they breached the barricades, they know that No deal is better than a Bad Deal! and they believe it enough to sacrifice themselves. Do I feel like a sitting duck? The mood is intense; the riot police are all geared up, shields, munitions, dogs, parades. . God help us all
