This roundtable is a key component of a study commissioned by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) to explore ways to enhance trade and investment between the UK and the Southern African Customs Union (SACU) member states plus Mozambique (SACUM). The study, conducted by the ODI, IMANI and DNA Economics, aims to identify opportunities and make recommendations for maximizing the benefits of the SACUM-UK Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) and the UK's Developing Countries Trading Scheme (DCTS).
Join us as we bring together policymakers, experts, and business representatives to discuss the practical implications of the SACUM-UK EPA and identify ways to maximise its benefits.
