West African Competitiveness Observatory

    The West African Competitiveness Observatory is a monitoring tool of the trade competitiveness of West African countries and the region.

    Overview

    The West African Competitiveness Observatory helps policymakers to define policies that foster trade competitiveness and value chain development, and supports local firms, in particular small and medium enterprises, to integrate more into regional value chains.

    The Observatory has been established under the West Africa Competitiveness Programme (WACOMP). It is implemented by the International Trade Centre (ITC) under the coordination of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) and with the financial support of the European Commission.
