As a central issue of the WTO reform, its decision-making mechanism has been discussed and extensively. Based on some recent proposals by WTO members on this issue, FMG is most glad to host a candid and inclusive dialogue to exchange views and explore potential ways forward for an effective WTO’s decision-making process that can respond to the 21st century challenges.

To our knowledge, the related proposals include the followings:

Preserving the Current Practice of Consensus-Based Decision-Making in the WTO

(Communication From Samoa on behalf of the African, Caribbean And Pacific Group ).

Responsible Consensus (Communication From Brunei Darussalam, Costa Rica; The Gambia; Korea, Republic Of; Norway; Peru; Singapore; Switzerland; Separate Customs, Territory Of Taiwan, Penghu, Kinmen And Matsu).

Revisiting the Marrakesh Agreement to Improve WTO Decision-Making: A Pareto Improvement Perspective (RD/GC/31).

FMG is most glad to organize a webinar to discuss the decision-making of the WTO.
