Environmental dimensions of EU trade policy
IEEP informs the debate on the global environmental contributions and consequences of the EU trade policy.
We actively provide input to the evidence base and policy debates in this sphere with a particular focus on current EU trade negotiations and trade-related autonomous measures. We aim to ensure that the EU trade policy has a positive impact on sustainable development worldwide.
