The Wemos Foundation, an EPHA member, is organising a workshop on Food and Nutritional Security during the World Trade Organisation Ministerial meeting in Cancun, Mexico in September 2003.
The event will take place at 14.00 on 12 September.
The event is a result of joint advocacy by civil society groups and organisations involved in food, nutrition, trade and health issues.
Southern and Northern partners will address their national governments and the relevant regional organisations or trade blocks (e.g. European Union or SADC) to encourage them to "take active steps to guarantee access to healthy nutrition for all women and men during WTO trade negotiations and when the outcomes of these negotiations are implemented."
