Trade campaign
Trade justice now
The World Development Movement (WDM) is a founder member of the Trade Justice Movement, a coalition of over 60 organisations campaigning for trade justice - not free trade - with the rules weighted to benefit poor people and the environment.
We want the UK Government to:
- Ensure the WTO remit is not expanded to include new issues such as investment.
- Stop forcing poor countries to open their markets; and champion their right to manage their own economies.
- Regulate big business and their investments to ensure people and the environment come before profits.
- Stop rich countries promoting the interests of big business through trade interventions that harm the poor and the environment.
- Ensure trade policy is made in a fair, transparent and democratic way.
