This trade union dossier supplements the trade union guide which presents the main trade union issues arising from the new institutional framework introduced by the Cotonou Agreement and the EPAs and emphasizes the related risks and opportunities. It likewise provides a body of knowledge and analyses to help boost the capabilities of the trade union organisations at the national and regional level in the framework of the negotiation of the EPAs. It also acts as a resource for negotiators from the trade unions by offering analyses of central points with a view to promoting the social and human dimensions of the EPAs.
