ART is presently organizing a speaking tour designed to increase knowledge in the United States about the FTAA and to expand civil-society participation in ART/HSA and other events to be held parallel to the trade ministers’ meeting this November in Miami, including a forum that contrasts the HSA’s alternative proposals with the FTAA. |
