Ideas:
“  My main interests:1. Climate Change "differentiation" (COP) vs "non-discrimination" (WTO).2. WTO crisis: "positive solutions" without rule changes, acknowledging that WTO today is part of the problem?3.(Almost) all "trade and" topics: Global Food Security vs Obesity and Malnutrition (trade rules favouring malnutrition or preventing health taxes or consumer information)- Human Rights and Employment ("decent" vs "any" work vs "forced labour")- Water (allocation biases resulting from cash crop export priorities)- AfCFTA, TPPA/CPTPP, NAFTA/USMCA, TTIP and other issues of regionalism, Trends to unilateralism.4. SDG and "self-defined" sustainable trade vs developing country exports. Now you can say I am overextended. I'll say that's the advantage of an old generalist!  ”
