The Global Alliance for Trade Facilitation (the Alliance) supports governments in developing and least developed countries in implementing the World Trade Organization’s Trade Facilitation Agreement (TFA). Alliance projects cut through red tape and end costly delays at borders by bringing together governments and businesses of all sizes as equal partners to deliver targeted trade reforms. A cornerstone of every project is public private partnership. Acting as a neutral convener and catalyst between government and business, the Alliance builds consensus, including through workshops, public private dialogues, and public private working groups, to deliver digitalisation and other best practices. The Alliance is led by the Center for International Private Enterprise, the International Chamber of Commerce, and the World Economic Forum, in cooperation with Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ). It is funded by the governments of the United States, Canada, Germany, and Denmark
