For many African countries there may be a close relationship between
issues of domestic reform in the area of government procurement and the
issue of their interest and participation in a possible WTO agreement on
transparency in government procurement which embodies good practice in
this area. The purpose of the Workshop was to draw upon the synergies
between the work of the two organizations by addressing both sets of
issues in a single workshop.
The programme was designed to promote awareness of the role and
significance of government procurement-related policies and practices
for the African countries and the multilateral trading system; to
exchange information on the potential implications of different
multilateral and regional disciplines; to share experiences on the
design and implementation of procurement reforms; and to discuss
capacity-building needs, especially with a view to assisting the
countries of the region to participate effectively in the ongoing
activities in this area.
