Introduction
Aid for Trade seeks to enable developing countries, and in particular least-developed countries (LDCs), to use trade as a means of fostering economic growth, sustainable development and poverty reduction. It promotes the integration of developing countries, especially LDCs, into the multilateral trading system and aims to galvanize support to build supply-side capacity and trade-related infrastructure in these countries to improve trade performance.
Foreword
The successful conclusion to the WTO’s 12th Ministerial Conference (MC12) is an important step towards a stronger and more effective multilateral trading system. MC12 shows that the WTO delivers results for the benefit of people around the world. MC12 has also highlighted the important role of the WTO in addressing the problems of the global commons in areas such as the environment and food security and in acting in the interests of members across different levels of economic development.
Conclusion
The results of the 2022 OECD–WTO monitoring and evaluation (M&E) exercise underline the need for more Aid for Trade and for better-targeted financing. They confirm that the COVID-19 pandemic was a significant setback for the integration into world trade of many developing countries and for their development prospects, especially for least-developed countries (LDCs).
Executive summary
Trade objectives feature prominently in the development strategies of developing countries. Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, trade remains a development priority. This is the strong message that emerges from the 2022 Aid for Trade monitoring and evaluation (M&E) exercise, conducted jointly with the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD).
Conclusiones
Los resultados del ejercicio conjunto de vigilancia y evaluación de la OCDE y la OMC de 2022 ponen de manifiesto la necesidad de más Ayuda para el Comercio y de una financiación mejor orientada. Confirman que la pandemia de COVID-19 fue un importante retroceso para la integración de muchos países en desarrollo en el comercio mundial y para sus perspectivas de desarrollo, especialmente en el caso de los países menos adelantados (PMA).
Report by the WTO Secretariat
During the review period 2015-21, New Zealand continued to strengthen its position as one of the most open economies in the world and updated some elements of its trade and investment regime. New Zealand considers trade as critical for its prosperity and seeks to ensure that trade is inclusive.
Report by the WTO Secretariat
The Republic of Moldova is a small, open, landlocked, upper-middle-income country. The services sector dominates the economy, accounting for 64% of GDP, while agriculture continues to play an important role as well (accounting for 12% of GDP and around 21% of employment), particularly in rural areas. Remittances represented nearly 15% of GDP in 2021, and the population has continued to decline as relatively young workers emigrate. The Republic of Moldova is dependent on imports of fossil fuels (including gas, which is also used to generate electricity), while state-owned enterprises continue to play an important role in the economy, particularly in terms of employment.

Introduction
The Trade Policy Review Mechanism (TPRM) was first established on a trial basis by the GATT contracting parties in April 1989. The Mechanism became a permanent feature of the World Trade Organization under the Marrakesh Agreement which established the WTO in January 1995.
Concluding Remarks by the Chairperson of the Trade Policy Review Body, H.E. Mr Ángel Villalobos Rodríguez of Mexico, at the Trade Policy Review of Brazil, 23 and 25 November 2022.
The eighth Trade Policy Review of Brazil has offered us a good opportunity to deepen our understanding of recent developments in, and challenges to, its trade, economic, and investment policies. Since its seventh TPR in 2017, Brazil’s initiatives to maintain its participation in the Multilateral Trading System and take advantage of the opportunities it offers were greatly appreciated. Indeed, the 958 advance written questions submitted by 38 Members and the 51 delegations that took the floor during the first and second day underline the importance attached by Members to Brazil’s trade and investment policies and practices.
