Applications open for WTO course on services aspects of e-commerce
The course will familiarize participants with the links between e-commerce, services trade and disciplines of the WTO's General Agreement on Trade in Services, with a particular focus on specific services sectors. The moratorium on e-commerce, as well as other e-commerce discussions at the WTO, will feature in the course programme. The objective of the course is to increase participants' autonomy when they develop services trade policies and seek to mainstream e-commerce into their national trade policy plans.
Experts from the WTO Secretariat will contribute to the programme. The course will be held in English.
