内容説明

Trade in food is difficult to imagine without standards. Food standards give confidence to consumers about the safety, quality and authenticity of what they eat. By setting out a common understanding on different aspects of food for consumers, producers and governments, harmonisation on the basis of international standards makes trade less costly and more inclusive. Food standards and trade go hand in hand in ensuring safe, nutritious and sufficient food for a growing world population. Together, FAO and the WTO provide governments with the means to establish a framework to facilitate trade on the basis of internationally agreed food standards. Through the joint FAO/WHO Codex Alimentarius Commission, governments establish global science-based food standards that provide the foundation for achieving public health objectives such as food safety and nutrition. Since standards are essential for smooth trade, the WTO SPS and TBT Agreements strongly encourage governments to harmonize their requirements on the basis of international standards. This publication emphasizes the importance of participation and engagement of governments in standards development in Codex and in resolving trade concerns in the WTO SPS and TBT Committees, as well as the importance of capacity development, which together contribute to the dynamism and robustness of the global system of food standards and trade.

内容説明

The 2018 World Trade Report analyses how digital technologies are transforming global commerce and international trade cooperation. It examines in particular how trade is likely to evolve in the coming 10 to 15 years as a result of digital technologies, such as 3D printing, artificial intelligence and blockchain. Case studies provide concrete examples of how companies are already using new technologies to streamline their operations. The report also include contributions from academics and leading experts on how they see digital technologies having an impact on the future of trade and the nature of trade cooperation.
