DetailsAbout
The Trade Justice project has three components: Training, Local Trade Action Plan Implementation and International Linkages.

Training Courses (August to September)

The project begins with an online training course for four weeks starting in August. This will provide an introduction to international trade, human rights and campaigning and advocacy. Participants will analyse the impact of international trade on their communities and work, and begin planning their local Trade Action Plans.

This will be followed by a two week face-to-face workshop held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. The workshop will focus on advocacy techniques and training in rights-based approaches to development work and campaigning. It will include strategy sessions for participants to finalise their Action Plans. We are planning to include field visits, prominent local speakers and other activities.

Participants will implement a local Trade Action Plan after the Cambodia workshop in partnership with local community organisations. These Action Plans will be based on the local impact of international trade and the specific trade issues facing their country. OIYP will continue to support participants in the action component of the project through-out 2006.

Participants working on HIV/AIDS issues will work with the Global Youth Coalition on AIDS (GYCA) on the XVI International AIDS Conference to be held in Toronto in August 2006. This conference will be an opportunity for young people to speak out about the impact of intellectual property rules on access to medicines in the developing world.

Participants working on agricultural issues will participate in a workshop on Youth and Trade which will be hosted Oxfam Hong Kong (OHK) and OIYP in Hong Kong prior to the WTO Ministerial in December 2005. A focus of the conference will be to learn from the Trade Action Plans implemented by participants. After the workshop, participants will join civil society actions and activities held concurrently with the WTO Ministerial.
