Trade Policy Committee

The Trade Policy Committee focuses on gender and inclusive trade policies, within bilateral and multilateral trade agreements, as well as trade policy generally.  We are regularly asked to provide input, as a stakeholder, for consultations on free trade agreements under negotiation (eg. CUSMA), and for consultation papers, like the GAC-WTO Framework for Investment Facilitation for Development.  If this area is of interest to you and you would like to join the committee, please contact our committee co-chairs, Susan and Maria, at info@owit-toronto.ca
