ITC is organizing the Good Trade Summit 2023, jointly with the Business Council for International Understanding (BCIU), on 20 September 2023, in New York, on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly. The event will explore the theme of Global Cooperation: Working Together to Build Sustainable & Inclusive Supply Chains.
2023 marks the midpoint for the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the 2030 Agenda. At this crucial juncture, the Summit will engage key stakeholders, from governments, multilateral organizations, and the private sector, including small businesses, brands and retailers. The event will focus on amplifying the voice of small businesses as active contributors to the SDGs in setting the policy agenda.
At the Good Trade Summit, ITC will launch a Call to Action: ‘Uniting Sustainable Actions’. This Call to Action stands as a distinctive and comprehensive initiative, uniting small businesses and diverse actors under a shared commitment to drive sustainable trade practices. Its holistic approach, focus on empowerment, collaboration, and digital transparency which sets it apart, making it a catalyst for tangible, positive change across global value chains.
