📢 This week we were honoured to represent the consumer voice at the first-ever OECD - OCDE Consumer Policy Ministerial Meeting in Paris. The event entitled 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐃𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐆𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 was an unprecedented opportunity to address the risks and opportunities in a new era of consumption. It brought together ministers, industry and international organisations from across 55 countries. Consumers International was the the only consumer group invited to the Ministerial and brought a global delegation from across several of our Members to the discussions ➡️ https://lnkd.in/e_XEv6Du. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐝? 1️⃣ We saw our recommendations taken up in the Ministerial’ s Declaration on Protecting and Empowering Consumers in the Digital and Green Transition, signed by close to 50 ministers and other representatives. 2️⃣ We supported agenda topics and shared consumer insights and recommendations in speaking roles across thematic sessions on product safety, cross border protection, inclusivity and the green and digital transition. 3️⃣ We united leaders in a VIP Lunch to explore the nexus of sustainability and safety and how intersectional approaches provide win-win-wins for global goals, consumer protection and people in the marketplace. The Ministerial stressed the need for more collaboration than ever, and for this to extend beyond traditional actors. We stand ready to support this. Through our seat at the table we can help to enrich dialogue and accelerate action.
