Donors’ support is integral in ensuring reforms can be implemented and sustained by the developing countries.
What are the best practices in successfully coordinating such aid and making sure that the progress it achieves lasts?
Planning strategically to ensure donor contributions are managed in the best way possible would not only help achieve the results on the ground but also help to build donor’s confidence in the country.
In this session, we will learn from the experience of countries in the region in obtaining and overseeing donor’s aid for trade facilitation reforms, and overcoming challenges that this process entails.
We will also hear from a donor’s perspective of what countries could do to ensure success in seeking and managing the TF technical assistance.
