Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF)

The Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF) is a multi-donor programme that supports least developed countries to be more active players in the global trading system by helping them tackle supply-side constraints to trade. The programme works towards a wider goal of promoting economic growth and sustainable development and helping to lift more people out of poverty. The programme is helping 51 of the poorest countries worldwide, supported by the multi-donor EIF Trust Fund, with contributions from 23 donors. A high-level pledging event in 2007 set a funding target of $250 million over five years; it seeks additional and ongoing contributions.
