It also looks into how Free Trade Agreement negotiations between the EU and the US impact on Africa, for example on agricultural regulations and the integration of global value chains. The presentation ends with a two pronged approach for Africa: strengthen and stimulate internal demand, and to work on export competitiveness externally. acpeutrade new_trade_team policy_news new_at_ECDPM epas Fri, 26 Jul 2013 15:01:04 +0000 http://del.icio.us/url/6aa18f5ac61849ccf989d56915af3adc#cotonou_online http://www.ecdpm.org/Web_ECDPM/Web/Content/Navigation.nsf/index2?readform&http://www.ecdpm.org/Web_ECDPM/Web/Content/Content.nsf/0/1F8A4C18A37DB03AC1257BB30028BB63?Opendocument http://del.icio.us/url/6aa18f5ac61849ccf989d56915af3adc http://feeds.del.icio.us/v2/rss/url/6aa18f5ac61849ccf989d56915af3adc cotonou_online's links This e-book from the European University Institute (EUI) compiles the written contributions prepared by the speakers of an EUI conference entitled ‘Global Europe: The New Generation of EU Preferential Trade Agreements’ that took place on May 2012.

The aim was to go beyond the rhetoric of regional policy statements and look at what 'actors and factors' are behind the progress, or lack of it, in existing integration processes. Bruce Byiers outlines the main discussions from the meeting in our Talking Points blog. He hints at overcoming three key challenges of integration - accountability, lack of commitment and interagency coordination - and focusses on ongoing functional cooperation and building on what does work. A possible avenue is through development corridors, although reservations remain on how to promote accompanying investment and triggering employment along the transport corridors. acpeutrade new_trade_team policy_news new_at_ECDPM regional_integration Fri, 19 Jul 2013 14:19:49 +0000 http://del.icio.us/url/b72e224541aecf0d3e2ad3be9a1d7722#cotonou_online http://www.ecdpm-talkingpoints.org/direct-cash-transfers-to-avoid-the-resource-curse-pouring-money-over-poor-people-will-not-fix-politics/ http://del.icio.us/url/b72e224541aecf0d3e2ad3be9a1d7722 http://feeds.del.icio.us/v2/rss/url/b72e224541aecf0d3e2ad3be9a1d7722 cotonou_online's links The second-round resource boom in Africa should not be a missed opportunity. This time it must trickle down to lift people out of poverty, according to Isabelle Ramdoo in this Talking Points blog. So far, she says, all agree that this is the case. The rhetoric about how to make it work is now well echoed in all spheres of policy, including outside Africa. Ramdoo argues that direct cash transfers could be an option. But provided resource-rich countries get to grips with political and governance challenges. acpeutrade governance_of_economic_reform new_trade_team policy_news new_at_ECDPM governance Fri, 19 Jul 2013 12:26:30 +0000 http://del.icio.us/url/518c0355f9875a744cfde419682a2430#cotonou_online http://annual-report-2012.ecdpm.org/ http://del.icio.us/url/518c0355f9875a744cfde419682a2430 http://feeds.del.icio.us/v2/rss/url/518c0355f9875a744cfde419682a2430 cotonou_online's links new_dpir_team new_trade_team new_at_ECDPM new_governance_team new_km_team
