Case studies presented by WTO chair-holders
Trade costs and inclusive growth looks at how implementation of the WTO’s Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA) can help to reduce trade costs and promote growth. The publication brings together contributions from ten participants in the WTO Chairs Programme, which supports trade-related activities by academic institutions in developing countries. The book looks into how the Aid for Trade initiative can assist with implementing the TFA, the importance of mainstreaming trade into national development strategies, and the potential impact of the TFA in various regions.

"The publication is a valuable contribution to the literature on trade costs.
Moreover, it underscores the success achieved by the WCP in enriching the trade debate by strengthening the relationship between academics and policy-makers. This is important not only to spark further interest in trade and WTO issues, but also so that we can continue to make trade work better, and for the benefit of all. " Roberto AzevĂŞdo WTO Director-General
