Description

The UK Trade Partnerships Programme is designed to ensure countries maximize benefits of Economic Partnership Agreements especially trade with the UK under EU EPAs or UK specific EPAs. The programme will increase awareness on EPA preferences by increasing availability and uptake of trade intelligence and build capacity of targeted firms/products to export to UK/EU market in selected pilot countries. The Programme will also allow DFID and ITC to learn lessons to inform future UK programming in export and import promotion. ITC will deliver the Programme in two phases: an inception phase of six months to tighten project design and an implementation phase of 28 months. ITC will measure impact in two ways: (1) increased trade between EPA partner countries and the UK and EU markets and (2) increased jobs supported through that trade. The programme will measure a variety of outcome level results, especially more competitive firms.  All ODA eligible EPA Countries will benefit from assistance in trade intelligence. In selected pilots the programme will conduct more targeted export promotion support including Cameroon, Comoros, Côte D’Ivoire, Fiji or Papua New Guinea in the Pacific, Ghana, Madagascar and Zimbabwe and two to three countries in the CARIFORUM region.
