WTO Doha Round

The latest round of World Trade Organization (WTO) negotiations, known as the Doha Development Agenda (DDA), present an unparalleled opportunity for economic growth and development for all nations of the world. Tangible progress is possible in the rules governing trade of both agricultural and non-agricultural sectors, along with the reduction of damaging tariffs and government subsidy programs. Services negotiations, important for maintaining the momentum for global economic growth, are also in discussion as a part of the DDA.

Only a few months remain, however, for WTO Member Governments to save this round of negotiations. It is critical that the governments of the world make the political commitments necessary to achieve real progress.

Real progress in the Doha Development Agenda is among Business Roundtable's highest priorities for 2005. For more information on the benefits of a successful DDA, please contact the Roundtable's International Trade and Investment Taskforce at (202) 872-1260.
