COMCEC 12th Annual Focal Points Coordination Meeting was held virtually on 25-26 June 2025 with participation of 150 COMCEC Working Group Focal Points and National Focal Points.
During the Meeting, recent developments regarding the COMCEC Working Groups and the COMCEC Project Support Programs were presented to the focal points. The activities implemented under the COMCEC umbrella were also presented in detail. Furthermore, the focal points of the COMCEC Working Groups convened based on their respective sectors — namely Trade, Financial Cooperation, Agriculture, Transport and Communications, Tourism, and Poverty Alleviation — and held deliberations on the prospective activities, as well as the identified themes and research topics for the 2026–2028 period.
Furthermore, the meeting included a detailed presentation on the key principles, procedures, and practical steps for preparing and submitting project proposals under the COMCEC Project Funding Mechanism. In addition, as good practices, the focal points of Uganda and the Gambia delivered presentations to share their experiences and lessons learned during the implementation of their projects. An exercise was also made for the preparation of a sample project proposal within the framework of the program.
