We cordially invite you to an event in which the EU trade agreements with Latin America, in particular the Mercosur Agreement, are examined from different angles. It will discuss how global economies and trade can be designed to help solve problems such as the climate crisis, poverty and growing inequality. The focus is on public participation in this process and how sustainable trade agreements can be implemented, including with regard to the use of pesticides.
