Reference manual for the integrated assessment of trade-related policies

This Manual is designed to help policy makers and practitioners - in the developed world and in developing countries - to conduct integrated assessments of the economic, environmental and social impacts of trade policy and trade liberalization. An integrated assessment considers the economic, environmental and social effects of trade measures, the linkages between these effects and aims to build upon this analysis by identifying ways in which the negative consequences can be avoided or mitigated and the positive effects can be enhanced.
