Description

Our ocean, the planet's largest ecosystem, is endangered by overfishing. What's the WTO got to do with it, you may ask. By prohibiting harmful fisheries subsidies that contribute to overcapacity and overfishing, WTO members agreed to play their role in the sustainable use of marine resources. Listen to Ambassador Santiago Wills of Colombia, the chair of the fisheries subsidies negotiations at the WTO and to Sainabou Taal, legal expert at the WTO Secretariat, explaining the importance of the Agreement on Fisheries Subsidies that was concluded at MC12.

It is about the connections it creates, the challenges it can bring, and also about the opportunities it unleashes. Let's Talk Trade brings these stories to the forefront. Every season we will dive into a different subject, and get people talking about how trade matters to them, and what the World Trade Organization has got to do with it. So stay tuned, and Let's Talk Trade! Brought to you by the World Trade Organization.
