Parliamentary Conference on the World Trade Organisation
The Parliamentary Conference on the World Trade Organisation (PCWTO) is a joint project of the European Parliament and the Inter-Parliamentary Union. Its objective is to enhance the transparency of the WTO and to make the WTO, an inter-governmental organisation, accountable to elected representatives of the people.
When the WTO holds Ministerial Conferences - usually every two years - the PCWTO meetings are held in shortly before the Ministerial Conferences, in the same location.
