Consistent with UNITAR’s strategic vision of leveraging new information and communication technologies for training and outreach, UNITAR’s Public Finance and Trade Programme focuses on training, skills building and cross-fertilization of information among officials in themes relating to public finance, financial governance, trade and intellectual property using internet-based e-Learning. This training programme brings together a global community of officials from the public and private sector as well as from civil society and academia primarily through e-Learning and online thematic discussions. Thousands of officials are trained each year through online courses and e-Learning is conducted in partnership with a range of other institutions.
