Delegates after a meeting of the WTO's General Council, the institution's highest-level decision-making body in Geneva,by a statue representing Peace. The World Trade Organisation, headquartered in Geneva, has 164 members, and in theory, negotiates and regulates global trade. It is however in crisis: new multi-lateral trade negotiations have been stalled for years, while it's principle dispute settlement body, the 'crown jewels' of the WTO and the global trading system, is almost completely blocked. Calls for reform are intensifying.
