Achim Steiner speaks during the WTO 20 year anniversary event - 28 April 2015 in Geneva

A flagship event on trade and environment marking the 20th anniversary of the WTO was held at WTO headquarters on April 28 in Geneva, with the participation of Director-General Roberto Azevêdo and the Executive Director of UNEP, Mr Achim Steiner.
The event provided an opportunity to take stock of the increasing interconnections between trade and environment since the establishment of the WTO and to look ahead to what needs to be done to ensure these two areas continue to be mutually supportive in the years to come.
