This is the eight online webinar organized for the Jamaica Online Empowerment Program Training for National Trade Facilitation Committees (NTFCs)*. Following the launch of the e-Learning course on 2 July 2025, eleven live webinars will be organized every two weeks.
This course is designed to strengthen national trade facilitation stakeholders from Jamaica with the understanding of fundamental concepts of trade facilitation as well as recommendations based on best practices. As part of this training, ten webinars will be organized. The eighth module is entitled “Technical Barriers to Trade and Sanitary and Phytosanitary measures in the context of Trade Facilitation”. After completing this module, participants will understand better the WTO Agreement on Technical Barriers to Trade, the Agreement on the Application of Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures and their relationship with the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement.
The objective of the webinar is to provide the members of the NTFC and other stakeholders from Jamaica with an opportunity to discuss more in-depth the content of the eight module of the UNCTAD e-Learning Course for NTFCs. Besides discussion on the content of the module, participants will also have the chance to share their experience on the best use of the platform.
