Marchés publics: ATELIER — DAR ES SALAAM, TANZANIE 14-17 JANVIER 2003

Atelier régional conjoint OMC-Banque mondiale sur la réforme des marchés publics et la transparence dans l'attribution des marchés publics à l'intention des pays africains anglophones

The Workshop was organized jointly by the WTO and the World Bank, in cooperation with the African Development Bank and the Government of the United Republic of Tanzania for Anglophone African countries (Botswana, Egypt, Ethiopia, Gambia, Ghana, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Mauritius, Mozambique, Namibia, Nigeria, Rwanda, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Sudan, Swaziland, Tanzania, Uganda, Zambia and Zimbabwe). It was designed to provide a forum for both trade and procurement experts to exchange information on multilateral, regional and national activities and initiatives including the WTO work on transparency in government procurement pursuant to paragraph 26 of the Doha WTO Ministerial Declaration and to share experiences in the design and implementation of procurement reforms.

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.
