Twenty Trade Information Desk Officers that were recruited recently to facilitate small cross border trade between Eastern D R Congo and the neighboring countries of Rwanda and Uganda participated in a two days' capacity building workshop at the COMESA Secretariat in Lusaka, Zambia. The training was part of the implementation of the Great Lakes Trade Facilitation Project (GLTFP) supported by the World Bank. It covers three border points between DR Congo and Uganda and two between DR Congo and Rwanda. The training was intended to enhance the capacity of the TIDOs to effectively deliver on their duties and responsibilities of serving the small scale cross border traders, majority of whom are women. The training also served as a forum for creating awareness on the Regulations on the minimum standards for the treatment of small scale cross border traders and the role Trade Information Desk Officers (TIDOs) in facilitating small scale cross border trade at project target borders.
