Welcome to Quaker Peace & Social Witness’s Hong Kong Blog!

We plan to use this space to bring you daily updates from the World Trade Organisation’s ministerial conference in Hong Kong over 13-18th December 2005.

Staff from a number of Quaker agencies, including Canadian Quaker International Affairs Programme (QIAP), Quaker United Nations Office, Geneva (QUNO Geneva) and QPSW, will be working at these talks to support developing country negotiators and promote a fairer negotiation process.

We hope to bring you the first update from Hong Kong on the evening of 12th December (the early hours of 13th in the UK). Please return to this site after this date or to receive automatic notification of the first update send an e-mail to tradejustice@quaker.org.uk.

For more information on what Quakers will be doing at the conference see the September Edition of QPSW’s newsletter Better World Economics – available at:
