This workshop is organized within the scope of the project on “Facilitating Arab regional and global integration through evidence-based policymaking toolkits”.
It is aimed at training national experts and policymakers on the use of the Global Economywide Trade Simulator Interface-United Arab Emirates (GETSI-United Arab Emirates) in trade analysis. The workshop enables participants to be in a better position to evaluate alternative scenarios of trade in goods. It also allows them to assess global trade shocks at an early stage, perform trade simulations and external shocks in a friendly way, and evaluate their potential macroeconomic and sectoral effects on the national economy in a timely manner.
