The CAREC Institute will host an online policy dialogue on “Insights from the 2024 CAREC Corridor Performance Measurement and Monitoring” on 23 June 2026, from 16:00 to 18:00 Beijing time (GMT+8). Simultaneous interpretation will be available in English, Russian, and Chinese.
This event will delve into strategies for improving trade facilitation in the CAREC region, leveraging key findings from the 2024 CAREC Corridor Performance Measurement and Monitoring (CPMM) data analysis. The analysis, based on real commercial shipment data, provides critical insights into the efficiency of transport and trade facilitation across CAREC corridors. It highlights essential performance metrics, such as time and cost indicators at border-crossing points, which are particularly vital for landlocked countries. The report also examines shifts in transport dynamics due to geopolitical disruptions, addressing infrastructure challenges and policy reforms like customs modernization. By bringing together policymakers, industry experts, and stakeholders, the dialogue aims to foster knowledge exchange, inform strategic investments, and promote collaborative solutions to enhance infrastructure, reduce trade costs, and support sustainable economic growth across the region.
The 2024 CPMM data analysis reveals varied performance across different transport modes and countries, emphasizing the need for targeted strategies and regional cooperation. This information is crucial for policymakers to prioritize development efforts effectively and enhance the region’s global trade competitiveness.
During the policy dialogue, leading experts will present and discuss the empirical findings from the 2024 CPMM, focusing on current challenges and opportunities in regional trade and transport. The event aims to promote effective policy measures and strategic investments aimed at enhancing trade efficiency, reducing transport costs, and improving infrastructure and regulatory frameworks. By fostering collaboration and dialogue among policymakers, industry stakeholders, and logistics experts, the dialogue seeks to align national policies with regional trade and connectivity goals.
Topics for interactive discussions will include strengthening regional cooperation, identifying and addressing bottlenecks in regional trade, and the role of digitalization in trade facilitation.
