The Sixth China Round Table is sponsored by the Government of China, hosted by the Government of Argentina, and organized by the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ Secretariat, as part of the agreed activities in the China-°ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ MOU

For questions and inquiries on the Sixth China Round Table, please contact co-coordinators:

In July 2011, the Government of the People's Republic of China signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ on the China LDCs' and Accessions Programme ("The China Programme").  The China Programme finances the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ Accessions Internship Programme and the annual Accession Round Table process, designed to build capacity and technical skills in trade policy, including on accession negotiations, for least-developed and developing countries. The China Programme also funds the participation of LDCs in selected °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¹ÙÍø×ÊÁÏ meetings that LDCs themselves identify as priority.
