The overall
objective of this new approach to collaboration between trade policy and trade promotion
experts in the three organizations is to assist developing countries, and especially the
least-developed among them, to integrate themselves effectively into the multilateral
trading system and to draw the maximum benefit from trade and investment opportunities. A number of measures
have already been agreed to improve the working relationships among the organizations and
others will be explored in future joint meetings. This will be achieved, in particular,
through improved cooperation and coordination in technical assistance activities.
Mr. Ruggiero,
accompanied by Mr. Bélisle, will begin a visit to four African countries (Tunisia, Côte
d'Ivoire, Ghana and Kenya) next week, after which the three institutions will consider
follow-up actions. |
