TAS Research

Building upon IISD's existing and extensive research, this initiative uses case studies and thematic papers to develop a clear understanding of the linkages between Trade, Aid and Security. IISD will also commission leading thinkers to assess which aid and trade policy options best promote security and sustainable development. As these papers come in, the site will be updated to communicate our findings.
