Balancing Trade Liberalization and Public Health Protection Under Wto Law
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: This study examines the complex connection between member states and the World Trade Organization (WTO), with a particular emphasis on how public health initiatives are implemented inside national borders. It looks at the laws that support WTO regulation of state members, such as General Exception Clauses in WTO agreements like GATT Article XX, TRIPS Article 8 and others, which permit the implementation of public health-related measures without unduly impeding global commerce. The adaptability of TRIPS laws and regulations is emphasized in the Doha Declaration on TRIPS and Public Health. The research also examines several cases in which state laws that violated their charters challenged WTO trade restrictions. With an emphasis on the need for a careful balance between international trade obligations in WTO agreements and public health protection, the article attempts to present a thorough analysis of the link between WTO laws and public health legislation.
