Cooperation in digital trade rules could potentially be geared to pursue sustainable development. For example, Burri and Kugler (2023), in their qualitative review on digital trade provisions (DTPs) in trade agreements, suggested that commitments related to consumer protection, business trust, data protection, enabling digital inclusion, electronic transactions facilitation and cybersecurity may represent measures aimed at addressing challenges related to sustainable development. This chapter further explores the impact of DTPs on sustainable development and provides an overview of the status quo and the ongoing trends in multilateral and regional cooperation on digital trade, especially in the Asia and the Pacific region.
