<b>TTIP: The 'harmonization' of regulation for the benefit of corporations</b><br>
<div class="moz-forward-container"><br>
Negotiated in secret and widely opposed by civil society and community groups, the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) calls for the 'harmonisation' of regulations between the United States and the E.U. Internet privacy and safety and environmental
regulations in all areas are expected to be decimated if this anti-democratic re-write of common protections for workers, the environment, and the public is permitted. Corporate interests with privileged access to the negotiating process hope to achieve technocratic
control of regulatory science. To learn more come to this public discussion event:<br>
