𝗥𝗜𝗦 𝗣𝗼𝗹𝗶𝗰𝘆 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗳 | 𝗠𝘂𝗹𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗺 𝗦𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗱 à 𝗹𝗮 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗲: 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗥𝗶𝘀𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗝𝗼𝗶𝗻𝘁 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗜𝗻𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗧𝗢 @RIS_NewDelhi is glad to announce the publication of the Policy Brief titled “Multilateralism Served à la Carte: The Rise of Joint Statement Initiatives at the WTO.” As the global trading system approaches the 14th WTO Ministerial Conference (MC14), plurilateral initiatives, particularly Joint Statement Initiatives (JSIs) have emerged as a central and defining feature of ongoing WTO reform discussions. These initiatives, launched outside a formal multilateral mandate, reflect a broader shift toward flexible, issue-based coalitions amid the longstanding impasse in multilateral negotiations. This policy brief, co-authored by Ms. Shailja Singh, Dr. Priyadarshi Dash (@pdash76), and Mr. Pragyan Agarwal, examines the evolution of JSIs since the Buenos Aires Ministerial (MC11) and provides a comprehensive mapping of their current status across areas such as e-commerce, investment facilitation, services domestic regulation, and environmental sustainability. The brief also analyses the legal and institutional questions raised by the increasing prominence of plurilateral approaches within the WTO framework, and situates these developments within the broader WTO reform agenda being debated by Members in the lead-up to MC14. It further highlights the implications of this shift for the multilateral trading system and for developing countries navigating an evolving rule-making landscape. At a time when the future trajectory of WTO negotiations is being actively reimagined, this policy brief offers timely insights into the changing architecture of global trade governance. 🔗 Read the Policy Brief here: ris.org.in/sites/default/fil… @MEAIndia @DoC_GoI @IndiaWTO @wto @aparnaray_ifs @SKSharma_World @Prabir_India @TheAtulKaushik @JindalGLS @JindalLaw @JindalGlobalUNI @sabya_saha @PV_Chat @AmitK_PhD @susheco @CWS_iift @GaurPankhuri @RenuuMann @__ayussh__ @Vaasu_Agg @LakhianiRiddhi @AIC_aseanindia @DakshinNews @cmec_ris @fitm14 @fisd19 #WTDR2026 #WTO #Multilateralism #JSI #TradePolicy #GlobalTrade #DevelopingCountries #WTOReform #MC14 #InternationalEconomicLaw #RIS #InternationalTrade #MinisterialConference #TradeAndDevelopment
