Trade Justice Campaign

Part of the trade justice campaign is to help achieve just and sustainable global trade policies and practices. We work towards raising awareness on how unfair trade rules prevent the poorest countries from finding their way out of poverty. 

Some of the issues we are involved in: 

Trade Matters

Get involved and join the Trade Justice Group!

The Trade Justice Group campaigns to help achieve just and sustainable global trade policies and practices. Unfair trade rules cost developing countries hundreds of billions of euro a year, much more than the total sum of aid from rich countries. Even small increases in a country's export revenues have the power to bring about big changes.

The Trade Justice Group carries out research and promotes public debate on the structures of unjust trade rules such as the WTO and CAP, organises public information campaigns and lobbying of politicians for change, and networks with other organisations and activists working on trade, particularly in Southern countries.
