20th CAREC Transport Sector Coordinating Committee Meeting

Objectives

The 20th Transport Sector Coordinating Committee (TSCC) meeting will review status of reports and manuals completed under all five pillars of the CAREC Transport Strategy 2030 and will set the objectives for the 2023-2024 work program. The meeting will discuss plans for dissemination and implementation of recommendations of multiple reports completed during 2020-2023 period.

Responding to the climate agenda, CAREC Development Member Countries and Development Partners prioritized the Paris Agreement Alignment (PAA) agenda in their transport programs.

The TSCC meeting will also discuss achievements and challenges all transport pillars under the CAREC Transport Strategy 2030 such as railways, road asset management, road safety, cross-border transport and logistics, and aviation. Following discussions, the meeting will approve a draft action plan of the CAREC Transport activities for 2023-2024.
