IATP's Trade and Agriculture Project initiates and supports efforts in the U.S. and around the globe to forge stronger and fairer multilateral trade rules. These should be based on respect for the rights of sovereign states and indigenous peoples to manage their economies according to their own development strategies. With expertise on the impacts of current policies on farmers, consumers, rural communities and the environment, IATP is working to prohibit dumping and ensure fair commodity prices at the national and international levels.
