Summary
TradeSift is a method and software developed by Sussex researchers to help policy-makers and governments overcome the issues of complex and expensive mathematical modelling in order to analyse trade policy simply and cost effectively. By such means, TradeSift has benefited individual policy-makers, governments and civil society, particularly in poorer regions of the world, helping them to develop programmes that build capacity and improve trade.
