The public and private sectors have an equal responsibility to deliver trade facilitation reform. Reforms are also most likely to be effective if they are designed and delivered by both sectors working together.
That’s why the private sector is an equal partner to government from start to finish and why the two sectors take joint ownership of all of our projects.
Checkpoint 1: Country approval |
Checkpoint 2: Concept note approval |
Checkpoint 3: Project proposal approval |
Country identification
Governments and the private sector help us to identify countries with a need for trade facilitation support and a willingness from both sectors to work together on reforms. |
Scoping missions
We meet the private sector and government in-country to identify the main trade bottlenecks and identify a potential project concept. |
Project proposal development
We bring the public and private sectors together to develop the project proposal, ensuring it is feasible, targeted and measurable. |
Implementation
Both sectors deliver the project with the private sector providing support in the form of, for instance, technical expertise, resources, data, or piloting new systems. |
CO-CREATION | |||
MEASUREMENT |
This approach allows us to strengthen the capacity of the local private sector in developing and least developed countries to engage in public-private dialogue.
It also means we can deliver projects with business-efficiency, guided by rigorous targeting, monitoring and evaluation.
