TrainForTrade is UNCTAD's leading programme for training and capacity-building in the fields of international trade, trade-related services, investment and port management.

At the request of a government, the TrainForTrade team carries out a preliminary analysis of training needs in that country and submits a project document to address those needs. The launching of the project depends mostly on financial contributions from donors, but the country is also asked to share in the costs. 

When the project starts, the team identifies potential local partners capable of becoming:

  • trainers to deliver future courses
  • training centres with specific competencies or equipment
  • trainers specializing in distance-learning activities
  • members of national/regional steering committees
