World Trade Organization, Rue de Lausanne 154, CH-1211 Geneva 21, Switzerland Z E-mail: Petina.Gappah@wto.org
This article intends to briefly outline the role of developing countries in WTO dispute settlement as seen from the bench, that is, from the Appellate Body. More specifically, it looks at the participation of developing country Members in appellate proceedings, their contribution to the development of substantive and procedural WTO legal issues, and the provisions serving their special interests.
