The GPN Fair Trade Project
GPN partners throughout the Americas have been engaged in a exercise to gather ideas for a new, people-friendly, trade policy. The process is still underway and the goal is to arrive at a democratically constructed, broadly supported template for a trade policy that is friendly to working families. The elements of a new trade policy will soon be presented to the Obama Administration and key Members of the U.S. Congress. This Web-based dialog gives a chance to anyone to contribute to this process (in English or Spanish). Read more, and contribute your ideas, at FairTradePolicy.GPN.org.
