The 14th Ministerial Conference (MC14) of the World Trade Organisation (WTO) will take place from March 26 to 29, 2026 in Cameroon. It will be only the second time an African country hosts a Ministerial Conference, the first being MC10 in Nairobi in 2015. These biennial conferences are the WTO’s highest decision-making forums, involving all 166 member states.
The WTO governs the global system of trade rules and was established to help members raise living standards, create jobs, and improve livelihoods.
