Trade and Sustainable Livelihood in Fragile Contexts
In this episode, our host, Mr. Axel M. Addy, former Minister of Commerce and Industry and Chief Negotiator for WTO accession of Liberia, speaks with Dr. Gilles Carbonnier, Vice-President of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) and Professor at the Graduate Institute's Department of International Economics, on how trade can help foster peace through improving sustainable livelihood in fragile contexts.
With 20 years of experience in both international trade and humanitarian action, Dr. Carbonnier takes us through the path of peace that is assisted by trade and humanitarian economics. He is bringing insights of how economic tools and methods can help make sense of the social reality in conflicts and how innovative economic solutions for peace like the Humanitarian Impact Bond, launched by ICRC in 2017, are leading the way of fostering trade for peace.
The Trade for Peace Podcast will be back in the new year with more exciting episodes. Until then, we wish you a very Happy Holiday season and a peaceful and prosperous New Year!
