How will the TPP impact women?

On International Women's Day, Australia and 10 other countries will sign a revised version of the controversial Trans-Pacific Partnership agreement, rebranded as the 'Comprehensive Progressive' TPP (CPTPP).

But there is nothing 'progressive' about this deal. It gives special rights to foreign investors to sue governments, entrenches stronger monopolies on medicines, restricts the regulation of essential services and will result in more vulnerable temporary migrant workers.

Join Dr Patricia Ranald (AFTINET), Michelle Higelin (Executive Director, ActionAid Australia) and Jane Brock (Executive Officer,
Immigrant Women's Speakout Association NSW) to discuss the impact that the CPTPP will have on women, and what we can do about it.

Admission is FREE, but as places are limited please RSVP to campaign@aftinet.org.au as soon as possible.
