“You cannot have development without peace, and you cannot have peace without development.”

.@Interpeace_Org & WTO’s @Trade_for_Peace session, explored how trade can be more than a development tool—it can be a platform for dialogue, resilience & peacebuilding.
Peace-responsive trade, rooted in inclusive recovery & effective governance, can help fragile states rebuild.
