27 July 2016 SIxth Global Review of Aid for Trade: Promoting Connectivity Your Excellencies, The Sixth Global Review of Aid for Trade will take place in mid-2017. Underpinning the Review is a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) exercise. The aim of the M&E exercise is to survey: Aid-for-Trade priorities and how these have changed since the last monitoring exercise; the status of Trade Facilitation Agreement implementation and support; engagement in, and support to the development of e-commerce; and infrastructure investment, the development of related services markets and related investment climate reforms. One cross-cutting theme that will be examined by the M&E exercise is how Aid-for-Trade support is contributing to the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals, notably the targets on poverty eradication and women's economic empowerment. To collect this information, self-assessment questionnaires and requests for case stories are being circulated to donors (bilateral and multilateral agencies), regional economic communities, South-South partners and developing and least developed countries. In addition, a call for case stories is being circulated to the private sector, academia and NGOs. Responses to the questionnaires and information provided in the case stories will be analysed and conclusions drawn in a joint publication by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) and the World Trade Organization (WTO): "Aid for Trade at a Glance: Promoting Connectivity". The publication will be launched at the Sixth Global Review of Aid for Trade. The Global Review event is influential in galvanizing support and directing strategies to help developing countries derive the maximum development benefit from trade. We ask that you please complete the relevant monitoring questionnaire and submit it by 31 October 2016. We thank you in advance for your contribution.
