An Accelerated Program for Economic Integration (APEI) meeting was convened by the Chair, Malawi, in Port-louis with the support  of the World Bank from the 27th – 28th February 2017. The RMCE is the Interim Programme Secretariat for the Intra-Africa Talent Mobility partnership (TMP) Programme that is financed by the Development Grant Facility (DGF) of the World Bank.

During the meeting, the World Bank staff team responsible for supporting the APEI initiative had facilitated dialogue and review progress towards implementation of the Indicative triggers for a second development policy operation (DPO-2) in the APEI matrix of Priority Policy Reforms; discussed with APEI members the Priority Policy Reforms for a DPO-2; and identified areas for further technical assistance to meet these Priority Policy Reforms. Scope for support to APEI objectives using the PforR instrument, and the steps needed to prepare such support, was explored. The meeting provided a platform for APEI members to discuss other APEI initiatives, including facilitation of business persons and trade in education services.
