The Overall Objective (Impact) of this action is to contribute to increase sustainable intra-African and EU-Africa trade. First, the programme will help the African countries to benefit from trade opportunities by being able to conform with standards and technical regulations, which requires establishing efficient testing, certification and accreditation mechanisms that comply with the requirements of the SPS and TBT agreements and benefit from international recognition. Second, in order to maximise MSMEs export potential and support them to enter new markets, the action will also address other market access constraints or enablers: enhance value addition and export capacities through marketing, labelling, branding strategies, sustainability and environmental issues, technology transfer and processing for export, business promotion through market linkages and capacitate trade and investment support institutions.
