Welcome to International Trade and Research Centre (ITRC)

an independent Not-for-profit, Non-government, a Public Policy Research, Analysis and Engagement Organization (PPRAEO). We put our know-how into practice through research, capacity-building projects, project cycle management services, project ownership support, trade analyses and public-private partnerships.

Our service offer also comprises, monitoring and evaluation, strategy, policy advice, advocacy infused with lessons learned in the field and with insights developed through rigorous research. We share our knowledge and experience with policy-makers, stakeholders, and the global campaign for improved international trade ecosystem. We are particularly well-placed to convene reform-through oriented dialogue and to engage in constructive policy advocacy.

We are presently deepening our efforts in a select number of priority regions, focusing on critical aspects of International Trade, Regional Economic Communities, Industrial Policy, Structural Transformation, Economic Diplomacy and capacity building based on regions needs and demand. Evaluations of our work show that we have greater impact if we engage with diverse change agents across the decision value chain in emerging economy. We are concentrating our resources more strategically in high-impact programs in particular countries, and we also engage in global issues related to international trade.
