How the EU locks African countries into Poverty

category galway | eu | event notice author Wednesday December 05, 2007 12:31author by Sarah Clancy - Galway One World Centre Report this post to the editors

TRADING DOWN:

Thursday, 6th of December @ 7.30 pm

Galway One World Centre, Bridge Mills, Dominick Street, Galway

Talk by Colin Roche (Oxfam Ireland)

The deadline by which poor countries have to accept EU free trade
rules is rapidly approaching - but research and the experience of
partners in the South indicate that, in their present form, these
deals will be disastrous for poor countries.

The EU is effectively forcing the countries to open up their markets
to European companies. Even though many countries have serious
concerns about the deals, the EU is not listening.

The evening will highlight how these free trade agreements will
threaten livelihoods and the ability of poor countries to manage
their economies in the public interest and what actions we can take
to support the countries.

all welcome - no cover charge
booking essential as places are strictly limited
