On Tuesday, UKUDLA Project Leader Prof. Dr. Christine Wieck presented “EU trade deals in turbulent times: Implications for EU–South African trade flows and EU sustainability ambitions” at the CAS seminar at the University of Pretoria.
The presentation explored the EU - South Africa trade relations and focused on topical developments on the EU trade policy agenda, the re-emergence of the narrative of competitiveness and food security, and their potential effects on EU - South Africa trade relations.
It also highlighted sustainability governance developments related to agri-food production, including the climate policy agenda and attention to human rights in agri-food value chains. The presentation emphasized that a COLLABORATION approach is needed to move forward with these relevant trade and sustainability agendas simultaneously.
Thank you very much for the insightful presentation and discussion.
