Next Generation Trade Papers
15 January 2020
As part of events to mark its 10th anniversary during 2019, the Institute for Human Rights and Business (IHRB) hosted a discussion on the future of international trade in an era of rising populism and protectionism. The event brought together leading thinkers, decision-makers, practitioners, and those they directly affect, to discuss how to achieve a more principled, people-centred global economy, fit for the 21st century.
To support robust discussion and aid participants' preparations for the event, IHRB prepared a series of briefings for each substantive session:
- Fostering Inclusion
- Confronting the Climate Crisis
- Building the Future of Work
- De-Weaponising Trade
- Righting Data and Technology
The subsequent reflections from participants, as well as the meeting report, provide a flavour of what was discussed on the day.
