Trade Facilitation & Economic Development
Pan-African Ethical Trade Corridor Dialogues
Working sessions on reducing avoidable trade barriers between member markets and improving the competitiveness of member businesses.
- Focus area
- Trade & Logistics
- Locations
- Douala & Lagos
The corridor dialogues sit under ICTI’s trade facilitation mandate: promoting trade among members, reducing avoidable barriers, identifying investment opportunities, and strengthening the competitiveness of member businesses in both domestic and international markets.
The format brings chambers, logistics operators and member enterprises into the same room to work through the practical friction in moving goods between member markets — documentation, clearance timelines, and the cost of compliance where requirements differ across borders.
ICTI convenes and documents these sessions. It does not set customs policy: any change to clearance procedure rests with the competent national authorities, and the chamber’s role is to represent member interests to them.
Scheduling, participating chapters and published outcomes for this initiative will appear here once confirmed by the Secretariat.
