The Third Arab Competition Forum is organized by ESCWA, in collaboration with the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development, the International Trade Center, the League of Arab States and the Ministry of Commerce and Industry of Oman.
The two-day event will build on the momentum of the first and second forums. Competition authorities, government officials, experts and academics, both from within and beyond the Arab region, are gathering to discuss the future of competition policy.
The Forum is an important platform for advancing advocacy, knowledge and capacity-building regarding best practices in competition. It aims to strengthen collaboration and coordination between competition authorities and to contribute towards improving economic growth and governance. The Forum, guided by international best practices, aims to collect concrete recommendations on future activities related to advancing and enforcing competition policy and thereby inform competition policymaking in the Arab region.
