After, 10 years of the WTO’s “aid for trade” financial support through the Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF), the aim of the conference was to evaluate the milestones in terms of trade capacity realized globally through this aid for trade initiative of the WTO. The EAC featured prominently as a region that has put in a lot of effort at regional integration and reduction of trade costs pushed by bi-monthly heads of state summit. Among presented during the conference was EPRC’s “Leveraging Aid for Trade Capacity in Uganda” by Alex Thomas Ijjo and Isaac B Shinyekwa.
