On December 9-11, 2019, CLDP will organize a workshop on best practices in government procurement for public-private partnerships in Kathmandu, Nepal. 

On November 19-20, 2019, in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, CLDP & ITA will conduct a workshop on effective interagency coordination to facilitate comprehensive publication of trade-related and centrally-published information. Participants will include technical representatives from the Honduran and Guatemalan Ministries of Economy, Customs, Health, and Agriculture, and Honduran private sector representatives. During the workshop the Honduran participants will meet with their U.S. counterparts from the Department of Commerce, Customs and Border Protection, Health and Human Services, and the Food and Drug Administration to learn best practices for coordinating across trade ministries and publishing trade-related information in a non-discriminatory, easy-to-access manner. With support from the Honduran-American Chamber of Commerce, the participants will share respective efforts to encourage trade through greater transparency and improve publication practices. This workshop is part of a multiphase effort to promote transparency, cooperation, and coordination within the Honduran government, and to improve interregional trade in Central America.
