The ECOWAS Online Empowerment Program Training for National Trade Facilitation Committees launched in November 2022 is now operational in several countries in the ECOWAS region.
Members of National Trade Facilitation Committees (NTFCs) from the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) are participating in UNCTAD’s e-Learning Course for National Trade Facilitation Committees*, under the multi-faceted support provided by the Trade Facilitation West Africa (TFWA) Program.
The platform covers fundamental concepts of trade facilitation as well as recommendations based on best practices utilizing a wide range of formats, including recorded videos, quizzes, an e-book, a final exam at the end of each module, and suggested further reading for learners to explore. As part of this training, ten webinars will be organized for in-depth discussions on topics of each module and to answer questions.
Countries participating include Benin, Burkina Faso, Cabo Verde, Côte d’Ivoire, The Gambia, Ghana, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Liberia, Mali, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, and Togo
The training program is funded by The Trade Facilitation West Africa (TFWA) Program, a multi-donor initiative (EU, Germany, Netherlands, USAID) that is co-implemented by the World Bank Group and GIZ.
