Representatives from the Secretariat, the five major institutional stakeholders (World Bank Group, IMF, WTO, UNCTAD and UNDP), and other Task Force members will be on hand to brief Member States on the preparation of the 2017 IATF Report and other IATF activities, including preparation of the online annex (which will contain pertinent updated data on progress for all commitments and action items). A short presentation will be followed by an interactive discussion to solicit feedback and input on the IATF’s work. We welcome the participation of all delegations and other stakeholders in this event and look forward to your contributions to the dialogue.
