Assessing Environmental, Economic and Development Benefits of Global Trade Liberalisation

The Joint Working Party on Trade and Environment has conducted a thorough assessment of the benefits of further global trade liberalisation for environmental, economic, and developmental goals. This report illustrates how trade in environmental goods and services can result in positive impacts for all three areas of focus, including the many advantages of sustainable development. By promoting liberalisation in the global trade of these goods, we can help to build a more prosperous and sustainable world for everyone.
