Committee on Trade and Development

Overview
The WTO's Committee on Trade and Development plays a pivotal role in defining the developmental potential of e-commerce. In doing so, CTD has highlighted the need for a comprehensive approach towards e-commerce within the WTO. CDT also provides for important convening and consensus building capabilities among the various regional and international bodies that are relevant to e-commerce and development such as the United Nations Commission on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), the International Trade Center (ITC), the International Telecommunications Unions (ITU), and the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
