Practical Strategies for Improving Trade Consultation

Thursday, January 26, 2017 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
CSIS Headquarters

How can the executive branch improve its processes for soliciting and responding to input from the public regarding trade policy and negotiations? Improved consultations would raise the quality of the resulting agreements and their contributions to economic growth, and likely increase public confidence in the outcome of negotiations. Successful trade policies are a product of effective consultations with the Congress, executive agencies, and the public.

The Scholl Chair in International Business cordially invites you to attend our event. We will begin with opening remarks from the Hon. Peter Allgeier, followed by a presentation of research findings and a panel discussion, after which we welcome questions from the audience.

This event, and its accompanying report, were made possible by generous support from Google.
