 nd social impact of the COVID-19 crisis on MSMEs as well as strengthening 
 the resilience and contribution of these enterprises to the 2030 Agenda fo
 r Sustainable Development.\n\nThe purpose of the sub-regional workshop is 
 to launch the Impact Assessment Report of UNCTAD’s related activities\, 
 present the results of the trainings carried out at the borders\, as well 
 as to explore interventions to facilitate small-scale cross-border trade\,
  especially for women\, in a post-pandemic environment. Participants will 
 include representatives from relevant ministries of the five participating
  countries\, as well as representatives of cross-border trade associations
 . Regional economic communities\, and international and regional organizat
 ions will also be represented (COMESA\, EAC\, SADC Secretariats\, TMEA\, U
 NECA and UNDP).\n\nThe programme and additional information related to the
