International Trade Policy - An Inclusive and Sustainable New Zealand Approach

Viola Cheng

Abstract


At present, New Zealand’s foreign trade is facing the problems of small scale, unbalanced development and low level of market structure. The external pressures to New Zealand's foreign trade include the constraints of resources and environment and the challenge of the improvement of production standards. This article discusses how our trade and international policy better support economic development for all New Zealanders, especially boost benefits among SMEs, ethnic community, Māori people and female group, from three perspectives of inclusive and sustainable development, environmental and green recovery, and potential new growth points in international trade revenue, to generally reflect New Zealand’s full range of economic, social and environmental interests.
