National Expert to Develop Country Programme Document

Announcement Description

The Enhanced Integrated Framework's (EIF) Phase Three builds upon over a decade of global experience in supporting the least developed countries (LDCs) to integrate trade into their development strategies and leverage trade as a driver for poverty reduction, economic diversification and sustainable growth. In this new Phase, the programme places stronger emphasis on results-based management, national ownership and strategic leveraging of resources to deliver measurable and lasting impact.

This Country Programme Document (CPD) is the central programming tool for each LDC under EIF Phase Three. It serves as an up to five-year strategic roadmap – aligned with national priorities and informed by up-to-date diagnostics and analysis – that enables access to the EIF Trust Fund (EIFTF) through two complementary Funding Facilities. The CPD simultaneously preserves an agile and flexible approach to programming, enabling it to evolve over time and to allow for emerging national, regional and global priorities and shifts. The two complementary Funding Facilities are:

  • Funding Facility 1 for institutional development support, focusing on strengthening trade- and investment-related governance, policy frameworks and institutional and human capacities.
  • Funding Facility 2 for catalytic interventions that translate institutional capacity-building into tangible trade and investment competitiveness gains and expanded market opportunities, in line with national development priorities.
