Centad and the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) are jointly organising a national consultation on ‘WTO and India: Strategising beyond Hong Kong’ on March 20, 2006, in New Delhi.
Launched in November 2001, the Doha Development Agenda has entered a crucial phase in negotiations after the conclusion of the Sixth WTO Ministerial Conference held in Hong Kong on December 13-18, 2005. Post-Hong Kong and till April 30, 2006, India is faced with tight deadlines for finalising modalities in agriculture, NAMA and services. The importance of the current period for successfully integrating development concerns into the Doha Round cannot be overemphasised.
In this regard, Centad and FICCI will bring together key stakeholders to reflect critically on the ministerial text adopted in Hong Kong, and seek inputs for strategising beyond Hong Kong.
Date: March 20, 2006
Time: 10:00 am
Venue: The Park, 15 Parliament Street, New Delhi 110001
