Other global activity
Description
WTO Members gathered for a retreat in Evian-les-Bains on 10 October 2022 to brainstorm on the "second wave" negotiations on fisheries subsidies. A concrete first step on which there was wide convergence is to engage in knowledge building in the form of technical workshops with a view to better inform the negotiations. Against this background, the WTO Secretariat will organize two such workshops in the next months, the first of which will be held on 23 November 2022. This workshop will focus on the evolution of the overcapacity and overfishing disciplines.
