PANG undertakes research on globalisation
issues as they face the Pacific. Our current focus is on the potential impacts of
free trade agreements between the Pacific and developed country trading
partners – particularly the European Union, Australia
and New Zealand.
PANG hopes to disseminate
this information as widely as possible.We believe informing the Pacific community is vital to ensuring trade
negotiations are truly inclusive and democratic.All research undertaken by PANG is aimed at
use by civil society organisations, students and educators, policy
makers and trade officials.
Please feel free to use and
share the information posted here, and please return often for research
updates.
