Brief Description of the Partner Organisations


CUTS - Centre for International Trade, Economics and Environment (CUTS-CITEE):

In 1996, in order to take forward the organisation’s activities on the trade and development issues in a scientific manner combining expansion with consolidation, the CUTS center for International Trade, Economics and Environment (CUTS–CITEE) was established. The main objective of CUTS–CITEE is to enable and empower representatives of the civil society, from developing countries in particular, to articulate and advocate on the relevant issues at the appropriate fora and to create a questioning society through empowerment of civil society representatives thus ensuring transparency and accountability in the system. Side by side CUTS-CITEE also tries to promote equity between and among the developed and developing countries through well-argued network- based research end advocacy on the emerging and relevant issues.
