About the EIF
The Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF) is a global partnership dedicated to supporting least developed countries (LDCs) and recently graduated countries in harnessing trade and investment for resilient, sustainable and transformative development.
Anchored at the World Trade Organization (WTO), the EIF brings together LDC governments, funding partners, international agencies and the private sector to address system-wide trade and investment constraints and expand opportunities for long-term development.
