Debate: Aid for Trade and Global Production Networks

http://www.wto.org/ 18.07.11

How can Aid for Trade help developing countries participate in global production networks?

In today's international trade, goods and services are produced more effectively thanks to the emergence of global supply chains. How can the Aid for Trade initiative help developing countries increase their integration into this globalized production process? Sarah Thorn, Senior Director of Federal Government Relations at Wal-Mart, and Peter Brabeck-Letmathe, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Nestlé, discuss this issue with Keith Rockwell, WTO spokesman.
