| The objective of this workshop was to debate trade and environment negotiations
on issues of key interest for Andean countries, in particular on environmental
goods and services (EGS). The workshop was designed to reinforce the link
between trade representatives and environment representatives, thereby improving
the effectiveness of national positions on trade and environment to be defended
in international negotiations. The workshop was also intended to facilitate
the dialogue between Andean negotiators in Geneva and their representatives
in the five countries. Forty-one participants, including two representatives from each Andean country as well as international experts, attended the workshop. National participants from IGOs, NGOs, the private sector, and academia also attended. The workshop targeted negotiators of the Andean countries on trade and environment issues, specifically on EGS. Two working groups, one on environmental services and the other on environmental goods, developed a series of recommendations regarding possible activities to strengthen the capabilities of the Andean region in both areas. |
