Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) Debate in Dublin – Weds 5 Nov

category dublin | rights, freedoms and repression | event notice author Saturday November 01, 2014 01:49author by T Report this post to the editors

The Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) will drive renewal in Europe by supporting renewed growth rates of 1.5% with a boost in economic activity worth €800M! That’s one narrative, the other is that TTIP will undermine our democracy while driving environmental and food safety standards downwards and undermine progress for climate justice. Is it possible that it will do both?

This process has the potential to be a major game-changer for the coming decades, who will benefit, will there be losers and how will all this impact on us in both the Global North and Global South?

Come and join the discussion at the Comhlámh at the #firstweddebates
