🌍 At the #WTOPublicForum, the ITUC hosted a session on "Implementing labour standards in the WTO"—highlighting the crucial role of upholding fundamental labour rights in international trade. By ensuring these rights, we can promote decent work and create a fairer global economy…

The #WTOPublicForum is anything but public. Neoliberal ideologues dominate the session set by the Secretariat and DG @NOIweala If the @WTO really seeks "better trade for a better world," it should not be afraid to listen to critical voices.

Thanks @AmitiSen for this good piece, summarizing our panel at #WTOPublicForum on how important PSH with gov-set prices can be benefitial for both farmers in developing and developed countries. @wto needs to give political space!!! @humundi_ong @OWINFS thehindubusinessline.com/economy/agri-b…

Public Forum sessions are dominated by WTO and corporate interests, leaving little room for critical voices from the Global South. The promise of inclusivity remains unfulfilled🚫 igj.or.id/2024/09/12/the… #WTOPublicForum

Avec @trust_coast nous avons organisé un panel au #WTOPublicForum @OMC_fr sur la façon dont le commerce pourrait venir en appui aux petits paysans en UE et dans le Sud global. Nous organisons ce panel avec le négociateur agriculture du groupe Africain à l'OMC, Ogwuche Sunday.

Day 1 of the #WTOPublicForum. The premier body for global economic rulemaking has very little official role for civil society... so we are available to chat! DMs open to reporters, delegates, NGOs who want to talk economic justice.

Tomorrow at the WTO Public Forum! Trade rules for supporting small-scale farming as contributors to green trade in agriculture.

Shrinking space for civil society organizations at #WTOPublicForum 2024! PF is an outreach event made for CSOs to express their views. We’ve seen in the past years less and less space for our sessions and we’re deeply concerned about the overwhelmingly space @WTO sec. is taking.

Last year, Google and Microsoft data centers consumed more electricity than many countries did. Wild.

New text of WTO E-Commerce JSI leaked at @bilaterals_org bilaterals.org/?wto-electroni… This one is dated 29 June AND includes review of customs duties moratorium language - and I think this is first time the formal title “WTO Electronic Commerce Agreement” has been used?

If one includes both direct & indirect deaths from Israel's assault, the death toll in Gaza goes up to 186,000 people, according to the medical journal @TheLancet That's 1 in every 12 Gaza inhabitants killed in the last 9 months of genocide.

BREAKING: The Lancet has just published this article "conservatively" estimating that the death toll in the Gaza genocide could be 186,000 people or more. That's 8% of the population, obliterated. These are apocalyptic figures. thelancet.com/journals/lance…">thelancet.com/journals/lance… thelancet.com/journals/lance…">thelancet.com/journals/lance…

UN expert @srpoverty calls for an urgent rethink in the fight against #poverty, asking states to abandon the use of #GDP as a measure of progress & instead prioritise human rights & well-being in the economic decisions. #HRC56 ohchr.org/en/press-relea…
