Stakeholder Engagement Workshop English

Working group thumbnail

Government officials, civil society, and private sector representatives from Central Asia and the United States gathered in Tbilisi, Georgia for a Workshop on Stakeholder Engagement from January 17-21. At the first regional Working Group meeting, it was agreed that one area of focus would be on stakeholder engagement and good regulatory practice as a priority area of reform. There were requests to address aspects of stakeholder engagement including, inter-Ministerial / internal institutional design and frameworks; government-wide coordination; procedures of rulemaking process; best practices for public consultation including detailed process deep dives, examples, lessons learned; and modernizing the rulemaking processes for the digital economy. The goal this workshop was to provide Central Asian delegations with options of how to improve stakeholder engagement as they begin to update and draft new laws and regulations to enable digital trade.
