In December 2023, UNCTAD completed the implementation of the EU-UNCTAD Joint Programme “Train for Trade II” in Angola, as part of its Transforming4Trade High Impact Initiative.
The initiative advocates for innovative policy approaches to stimulate economic development, with a specific emphasis on enhancing countries’ productive capacities and achieving structural economic transformation through evidence-based and sustained policy implementation.
The United Nations has acknowledged the Angolan programme as a best practice for achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
This publication by Africa Renewal focuses on the programme’s impact, drawing on beneficiaries’ first-hand accounts.
