WTO PUBLIC FORUM 2011

Have your say — An interactive Forum

The WTO Public Forum is about engaging the wider public in the trade discussions held during the Forum.

In order to increase its outreach, podcasts of each session will be made available on the forum’s website along with summaries of the discussions shortly after each session finishes. There will also be the opportunity to contribute to the debate through online discussion forums.

Regular updates will be available on Facebook and Twitter, and highlights of the event will be made available on YouTube.

This will allow session organizers to increase their visibility, while allowing internet users to post comments and contribute to the discussion, even if they could not make it to Geneva.

In the run-up to this year’s Public Forum, the WTO has launched a video contest video contest to allow the public to give us their answers to global trade challenges.
