his article describes the sustainable development provisions (SDPs) that are generally found in international investment agreements (IIAs), as well as those that explicitly refer to environmental and labour standards. In turn, it examines Chilean IIAs and their sustainable development provisions in bilateral investment promotion and protection agreements (BITs) and as part of preferential trade agreements (PTAs), and compares them with the inclusion of these provisions in IIAs worldwide. Considering that Chile is one of the leading countries in the negotiation of trade agreements and that, at the same time, it has made a strong public commitment to promote sustainable development, we propose some recommendations for future negotiations or renegotiations of Chilean IIAs to include more sustainable development provisions.
