Twenty-seven officials from developing countries will have the
opportunity to spend three months becoming conversant with the rules and
functioning of the Organization. This training course will cover all °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ
issues and will take the form of presentations and both interactive and
simulation exercises. Participants will also be able to attend certain °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ
working body meetings. Furthermore, they will have the chance to become
acquainted with the work of other international organizations which are
active in the fields of trade and development through visits or
presentations set up in conjunction with UNCTAD, the ITC, WIPO and the World
Bank.
The main aim of these courses is to provide participants with a greater
understanding of international trade rules. They also enable participants to
get to know the functioning of the Organization from the inside and to
strengthen their network of contacts. Such courses, which are funded from
the regular °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ budget, are an integral part of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ Secretariat's
training and technical cooperation plan. The activities involved should
serve to strengthen the capacity of developing countries to participate
actively in the multilateral trading system.
At the opening ceremony of the 33rd Trade Policy Course, the ITTC Director
stressed the opportunity afforded by this training course, which was taking
place at an important time in the context of the negotiations launched in
2001 within the framework of the "Doha Development Agenda" and the
preparations for the sixth session of the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ Ministerial Conference, to be
held in Hong Kong next December.
The 33rd Trade Policy Course, which is to be held in French, is the third of
its kind to be organized this year in Geneva. A similar course will be
offered in English in the second half of the year. The °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ is also
organizing five such three-month training courses this year at the regional
level in conjunction with partner institutes and universities.
