Global Online Course on Next Generation Trade Facilitation

 Global Online Course on Next Generation Trade Facilitation

19 May to 6 June 2025

We are pleased to inform you that ESCAP and UNCTAD are co-organizing a global Online Course on Next Generation Trade Facilitation (19 May to 6 June 2025).

This Course will explore trade facilitation measures that can enhance trade digitalization and support sustainable development, based on the UN Global Survey on Digital and Sustainable Trade Facilitation (www.untfsurvey.org) and relevant reports. It will introduce trade facilitation measures that go beyond the basic compliance with the WTO Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA), including those promoting paperless and cross-border paperless trade, as well as the inclusion of women and SMEs in international trade for inclusive and sustainable development. Moreover, the course will address emerging priorities in next-generation trade facilitation, such as green trade facilitation, advancing cross-border e-commerce, and leveraging emerging technologies for trade digitalization.
