This book was released on 2020-05-06 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The eTrade Readiness Assessment of Tuvalu focuses on examining seven key policy areas that are most relevant for e-commerce. Within each area, critical readiness gaps are identified and relevant recommendations are proposed to overcome barriers and bottlenecks to the growth of digital trade. The Tuvalu Rapid eTrade Readiness Assessment is the nineteenth such assessment conducted by UNCTAD since the launch of the Programme in 2017. There are signs that Tuvalu has started to consider some of the potential benefits that e-commerce can bring to its population and in particular in reducing some of the negative effects of its geographic location and small size. For this to happen, existing policies such as TKIII and TPF must be implemented, while higher visibility of the digital economy in the national development agenda constitutes a necessary pre-condition to tackle all the aforementioned challenges. This Rapid eTrade Readiness Assessment helps identify opportunities and barriers for Tuvalu to engage in and benefit from e-commerce and the digital economy. It also helps operationalize relevant strategies included in the Tuvalus Trade Policy Statement and the Tuvalu Private Sector Development Plan. Both documents highlight agriculture, fisheries, tourism and labor mobility as key areas of export growth, all of which could be supported by e-commerce. They also note other important cross-cutting areas that are relevant to e-commerce, including competition policy and consumer protection, public procurement, intellectual property rights, and gender issues.

There are signs that Malawi has started to consider some of the benefits that e-commerce can bring to its population and some important initiatives have been undertaken in this direction. However, the overall ecosystem needs to be structured and organized to avoid the proliferation of informal and unskilled operators, with obvious losses for government and consumers.

Download or read book Kiribati Rapid eTrade Readiness Assessment written by United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and published by United Nations. This book was released on 2019-12-20 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Kiribati Rapid eTrade Readiness Assessment focuses on examining seven key policy areas that are most relevant for e-commerce. Within each area, critical readiness gaps are identified and relevant recommendations are proposed to overcome barriers and bottlenecks to the growth of digital trade. Kiribati has yet to take advantage of the potential of e-commerce. The country could benefit substantially from e-commerce if it is able to accelerate the adoption of key measures aimed at supporting the development of an e-commerce ecosystem (e.g., e-commerce strategy, regulatory framework) and private sector investment (in infrastructure and access to finance). Among other benefits, e-commerce could fuel the development of the tourism and financial sectors, attract FDI, and increase employment in Kiribati. Despite the potential benefits provided by e-commerce, MSMEs may face barriers such as poor domestic and international logistics and limited access to financing.

This book was released on 2020-05-18 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a growing economy, favourable geographic location and rapidly developing innovation ecosystem, Tanzania is well-positioned to integrate into the global digital economy. Economic growth over the last decade has averaged 6 to 7 per cent per year and the medium-term outlook is positive, with growth projected at 6.6 per cent in 2019 and 2020. Large public investment projects and continued foreign direct investment bode well for the future, and there is growing awareness of the benefits of new technologies (as seen by the widespread use of mobile money). Tanzanias economy has also become more diversified over the last decade. While agriculture continues to be the mainstay for the vast majority of the population, emerging sectors such as finance and communications are propelling the economy forward. Export of manufactured goods to regional markets is also growing. Micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) contribute to 27 per cent of the GDP and employ more than 5.2 million people . More than half of the MSMES are owned by women. As a coastal economy bordering eight countries, six of which are nearly or completely land-locked, Tanzania is well-situated to expand as a regional trade hub. E-commerce has the potential to boost the countrys economy by creating new employment opportunities, diversifying sources of income and creating new value chains. For MSMEs in particular, digital technologies provide the potential to improve access to new and existing markets and customers. There is also immense development potential in tourism.

This diagnosis is predominantly based on updates of assessments already published, as well as seven rapid reviews conducted with countries that have not yet benefited from assessments.

Book excerpt: Malgré ses difficultés pour faire face aux défis qui ont mis à lépreuve les capacités de lÉtat et de la population à sauvegarder lunité nationale et la sécurité, le Mali nest pas resté à lécart des transformations induites par les technologies de linformation et de la communication (TIC). Son gouvernement a lancé des initiatives dans les domaines de ladministration électronique et des infrastructures des TIC afin de tirer profit des opportunités fournies par le développement de ces dernières, notamment à travers ladoption du référentiel Mali Numérique 2020, une stratégie nationale pour le développement de léconomie numérique. Une nouvelle dynamique régionale, impulsée par les Ministres du Commerce de l'Union Économique et Monétaire Ouest Africaine (UEMOA) dans la Déclaration ministérielle en date du 29 septembre 2017 visant à définir un plan de travail régional pour le développement du commerce électronique, permettra de soutenir les efforts du Mali dans ce domaine. Une première étape dans la préparation de ce plan a été initiée par la Commission de lUEMOA, en coopération avec la CNUCED, avec lorganisation dun atelier régional sur le commerce électronique, organisé à Ouagadougou du 9 au 11 octobre 2018. Limpulsion dinstitutions régionales telles que lUEMOA et la Communauté Économique des États de lAfrique de lOuest (CEDEAO), a encouragé les États membres à harmoniser les politiques dintégration économique, y compris le cadre réglementaire applicable au commerce électronique, et de nouvelles réformes doivent être conduites face aux développements rapides de la digitalisation.

Download or read book COVID-19 and E-commerce written by United Nations Publications and published by . This book was released on 2022-04-30 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This publication assesses the impact of COVID-19 on e-commerce and digital trade. While the pandemic caused a sharp deceleration in economic activity, it also led to a rapid acceleration of e-commerce. With restrictions on movement and other public health interventions in place, digital solutions have become essential to continued delivery of economic and social activities. And, as the digital economy and e-commerce play an increased role in Sustainable Development, stakeholders at all levels have a responsibility to ensure that these technologies play a positive and powerful role in national and international recovery efforts. Indeed, those that can harness the potential of e-commerce will be better placed to benefit from global markets for their goods and services, while those that fail to do so risk falling behind. Thus, the critical global policy challenge that emerges from this study is that greater efforts are needed to help reduce inequalities in e-trade readiness that currently prevail amongst countries.

Book Synopsis The New Pacific Diplomacy by : Greg Fry
Download or read book The New Pacific Diplomacy written by Greg Fry and published by ANU Press. This book was released on 2015-12-17 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2009 there has been a fundamental shift in the way that the Pacific Island states engage with regional and world politics. The region has experienced, what Kiribati President Anote Tong has aptly called, a ‘paradigm shift’ in ideas about how Pacific diplomacy should be organised, and on what principles it should operate. Many leaders have called for a heightened Pacific voice in global affairs and a new commitment to establishing Pacific Island control of this diplomatic process. This change in thinking has been expressed in the establishment of new channels and arenas for Pacific diplomacy at the regional and global levels and new ways of connecting the two levels through active use of intermediate diplomatic associations. The New Pacific Diplomacy brings together a range of analyses and perspectives on these dramatic new developments in Pacific diplomacy at sub-regional, regional and global levels, and in the key sectors of global negotiation for Pacific states – fisheries, climate change, decolonisation, and trade.

This book was released on 2006-10-06 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present edition of the Report provides unique data on the adoption of ICT by enterprises in developing countries. It also explores ICT policy options in a developing-country context and proposes a framework for national ICT policy reviews and for the design and assessment of pro-poor e-strategies. The Report’s analysis of trends in core ICT indicators such as the use of Internet and mobile phone, as well as the role of broadband in promoting the information economy, concludes that the diffusion of ICT in developing countries still needs government intervention in areas where private providers might be discouraged to go because of costs associated to geographic hurdles or the absence of a critical mass of customers.

This book was released on 2016-10-05 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Asia-Pacific Trade and Investment Report (APTIR) is a major annual publication of the Trade, Investment and Innovation Division of United Nations ESCAP. It aims to deepen understanding of trends and developments in trade and investment in the Asia-Pacific region; emerging issues in trade, investment and trade facilitation policies, and impacts of these policies on countries' abilities to meet the challenges of achieving inclusive and sustainable development. It offers innovative policy options to meet the challenges of achieving sustainable trade and investment. APTIR 2016 shows that 2015-2016 has been a worrying period for trade and investment n the Asia-Pacific region and worldwide, and there are few signs that the current economic and trade slowdown is simply a temporary phenomenon. Instead, this pattern may be the result of a change in the fundamental structure of world trade, which might lead to a persistent trade stagnation. On the other hand, good progress was made, especially at the regional level, with furthering cross-border paperless trade as one of the approached to deal with the upward pressure on the trade costs. Special feature of this volume is a chapter on digital trade in Asia-Pacific. Accepting the rising importance of e-commerce as a new trade platform, there is opening for the possible changes in the focus of trade and investment policies in order to leverage the potential of e-commerce to support intraregional trade.

Book excerpt: This Report illustrates the vigorous efforts being undertaken by many developing countries to catch up with their more developed partners in the dissemination and use of ICT. However, it also shows that the gaps are still far too wide and the catching-up far too uneven for the promise of a truly global information society, with its attendant benefits for sustainable social and economic development, to materialize without the sustained engagement of national Governments, the business sector and civil society, and the tangible solidarity of the international community.
